How to make Tasty Pancakes and a Special Peach Sauce

Now that the ingredients are purchased, its time to start preparing breakfast. Anyone else up for a Pancake spread with warm peaches and cream?

Directions:

• Combine softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and one tablespoon maple syrup in a medium bowl. Whisk to combine and set aside.
  
  
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

• In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, two tablespoons melted butter, and vegetable oil.

• Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix to combine. Do not overmix. Set aside.
  
  
• Melt remaining butter in a skillet set over medium heat. Add the sliced peaches and remaining maple syrup and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  
  
• Heat a non-stick griddle or large well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat. Pour a scant ¼ cup of batter per pancake and cook until golden brown, approximately 1 minute per side. Repeat with remaining batter.
  
  Tip: Reduce heat to just below medium if pancakes become too dark before they are cooked through.
  
  
• Once the last pancakes are on the griddle, return the peaches to medium heat until heated through, approximately 2 minutes.

• To serve, stack 3-4 pancakes on a plate and top with some of the warm peaches, a dollop of the vanilla cream cheese, chopped pecans, and a drizzle of real maple syrup. Enjoy!

Note: Give the pancakes approximately one minute to set up before flipping. They should be ready to flip once bubbles begin to appear in the batter.
