Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar (or honey for a natural touch)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ¼ cups buttermilk (or milk with 1 tbsp vinegar)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (add 1 more tbsp for extra richness)
- 2 cups diced peaches (fresh or canned in juice)
- ½ cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- Whipped cream, optional
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This dry mix creates the fluffiness.
- In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter until smooth.
- Gently blend the wet mix into the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined – lumps are okay.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Scoop ¼ cup batter per pancake and add some diced peaches on top.
- Cook 3 minutes until bubbles form, flip, and cook 2-3 more minutes until golden.
- Serve warm with a generous drizzle of caramel sauce and a dollop of whipped cream if you’d like.
Notes
Swap in whole wheat flour for added fiber or use mashed bananas instead of sugar for a healthier alternative. Homemade coconut milk caramel makes a great dairy-free option. Avoid overmixing the batter, and use medium heat to get perfectly golden pancakes.
