Cinnamon & Spice Pancakes With Warm Peach Topping
"If you're looking for a fun and tasty way to cook up a bounty of peaches, why not serve them for breakfast? I had a bag of ripe peaches and wanted to use them before they spoiled, so this idea came to mind. It turns out that it proved to be a successful experiment. These pancakes contain the gentle flavor of cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla and are topped with warm, saucy cinnamon-nutmeg spiced peaches. As my daughter says, "Deeeeelicious!""

ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
- 1⁄8 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
- 4 -5 peaches, ripened (skinned, pitted and sliced)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
- 1⁄8 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
directions
- Preheat a large skillet or griddle to medium heat. Preheat oven to low heat (180 F - 200 F).
- In a medium mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, 1 teaspoons cinnamon and 1/8 teaspoons nutmeg.
- In another medium mixing bowl, whisk one egg until frothy. Then add milk, oil and vanilla extract; then whisk until combined.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and whisk in the wet ingredients all at once.
- While cooking the pancakes, start the peach topping. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add peach slices, maple syrup, lemon juice, 1 teaspoons cinnamon and 1/8 teaspoons nutmeg; toss to coat evenly. Cook, stirring occasionally for 5 - 10 minutes or until peach slices have softened slightly, and a sauce is formed. Remove from heat and cover until ready to eat.
- Using a 1/4 cup sized measuring cup, pour pancake batter onto a hot, greased skillet/griddle over medium heat, leaving enough space between each pancake for them to expand.
- Cook for 2-4 minutes or until surface begins to bubble and edges appear slightly dry. Turn and cook for another 2 minutes until golden. To keep pancakes hot until ready to serve, place on a heat-resistant plate in the oven on low heat.
- Serve pancakes hot with peach topping.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>My name is Rebecca, but my family and friends call me Becky. I am 33 years old and live in Rochester, New York, USA. I am a life-long resident of Western New York and can't say as I'd ever want to live anywhere else. I grew up on a small dairy farm in rural Western New York and love country living. Although my husband and I live in a suburb right now, we hope someday to move back to our roots and live a peaceful country life. <br /><br />My husband and I have been married for 10 years. We have a beautiful 5-year-old daughter and a 3-year-old son. I am amazed at how quickly our kids are growing and developing. I read a lot about and hold my own personal skepticism regarding the affects of additives such as preservatives, hormones, artificial colorings, artificial sweeteners, caffeine, allergens, etc. With the increasing number of children and adults with food allergies, I am suspicious that the last century of our nation's food industry improvements have contributed. I'm doing the best I can to protect my family from the risks, but it is difficult to avoid every additive. I have friends and family with food allergies and know how difficult it is to cope with food restrictions. I enjoy the challenge of cooking for those with food allergies but can't imagine making it an every-day affair.</p>
