Buttermilk-Peach Pancakes with Honey Butter

1. For honey butter, in a small mixing bowl beat butter and honey with an electric mixer on low speed until light and fluffy; set aside.

2. In a large bowl stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. In a small bowl whisk together egg, buttermilk, and oil. Add egg mixture all at once to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter should be slightly lumpy). Stir in the 3/4 cup peaches.

3. For standard-size pancakes, pour about 1/4 cup batter onto a hot, lightly greased griddle or heavy skillet. Spread batter if necessary. (For dollar-size pancakes, use about 1 tablespoon batter.) Cook over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes on each side or until pancakes are golden brown, turning pancakes when surfaces are bubbly and edges are slightly dry. Serve warm with honey butter. If desired, top with additional chopped peaches and syrup.
