Ingredients


Pancakes


  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger

  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 2/3 cups milk

  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup or honey

  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

  • 1 large peach, thinly sliced

  • Butter, oil, or nonstick spray for cooking


For Serving


  • Butter

  • Maple syrup

  • Whipped cream (optional)



Instructions


  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, and salt.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract.

  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix.

  4. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.

  5. Heat a lightly greased skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.

  6. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Arrange 3–4 peach slices on top of each pancake.

  7. Cook until bubbles begin to form on the surface, about 3 minutes. Flip carefully and cook another 2–3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

  8. Serve warm with butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, or extra peach slices.



Tips for the Best Peach Pancakes


  • Use ripe peaches for the sweetest flavor.

  • Leave a few small lumps in the batter for fluffier pancakes.

  • Fresh peaches work best, but frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained well.

  • Keep finished pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while cooking the remaining batches.

  • Add chopped pecans or walnuts for extra texture and crunch.



Variations


Peach Cobbler Pancakes

Add an extra sprinkle of cinnamon sugar over the peaches before flipping.


Honey Peach Pancakes

Use honey instead of maple syrup in the batter and drizzle extra honey on top before serving.


Peach & Cream Pancakes

Top with whipped cream and fresh peach slices for a dessert-inspired breakfast.


Peach Pecan Pancakes

Fold chopped pecans into the batter for a Southern-inspired twist.



What to Serve with Peach Pancakes


These pancakes pair beautifully with:


  • Crispy bacon

  • Breakfast sausage

  • Scrambled eggs

  • Fresh fruit salad

  • Greek yogurt

  • Orange juice

  • Hot coffee or tea



Storage & Reheating


Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.


To freeze, place cooled pancakes in a freezer-safe bag with parchment paper between layers. Freeze for up to 2 months.


Reheat in the microwave, toaster, or a warm skillet until heated through.



These Peach Pancakes are fluffy, flavorful, and filled with fresh summer goodness. The combination of sweet peaches, warm spices, and hearty whole wheat flour creates a breakfast that feels both comforting and special.
