Ingredients
  

For the Pancake Batter:

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup buttermilk (or milk with a splash of vinegar)

1 large egg

2 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for the pan)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh peaches, diced

For the Whipped Cream:

1 cup heavy whipping cream

2 tablespoons powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches:

    - If you haven’t already, peel and dice the fresh peaches into small chunks. Set them aside.

      Mix the Dry Ingredients:

        - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

          Combine Wet Ingredients:

            - In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

              Create the Batter:

                - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are some lumps. Fold in the diced peaches gently.

                  Heat the Pan:

                    - Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat, adding a small amount of butter to coat the surface.

                      Cook the Pancakes:

                        - Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown. Remove and keep warm.

                          Make the Whipped Cream:

                            - In a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue whipping until it reaches medium peaks.

                              Serve:

                                - Stack the fluffy peach pancakes on plates, generously top with homemade whipped cream, and add extra diced peaches if desired. Drizzle with maple syrup for an added sweetness, and serve immediately.
