Peach pancakes are the perfect way to celebrate fresh, ripe peaches while they're in season. Light, fluffy, and bursting with juicy peach flavor, they're an ideal recipe to make right now for a leisurely brunch or anytime you're craving a breakfast that's both sweet and savory.
Melt the butter in a medium sized skillet over medium heat. Then add the peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches have softened but still hold their shape. Set aside while you prepare the pancakes.
Prepare the pancake mix according to package directions. Then mix in the cinnamon.
16 ounces pancake mix, 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tbsp of butter and ½ tbsp of olive oil to the pan. When the pan is hot, add ¼ cup of the pancake batter to the pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is golden brown (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown.
unsalted butter and olive oil for cooking
Repeat for the remaining pancakes, making sure to wipe the pan clean in between each batch.
Spoon the peaches over top of the pancakes just before serving.
Notes
Wipe out the pan in between each batch and add fresh butter and olive oil. This will keep your pancakes from burning so each batch is just as perfect as the first!
