Sweet fresh peaches, refreshingly tangy buttermilk and quality cornmeal combine to make one seriously delicious pancake! Now does that sound like a match made in heaven or what? Just enough fresh peach puree to add a delicious fruity undertone of flavor while keeping the pancakes nice and fluffy. 
Most recipes for cornmeal pancakes use mostly flour with a token amount of cornmeal. Not this one. We want to experience that wonderful corn flavor! And you’ll still get results that are light and fluffy. My kids devoured these and I enjoyed a second batch for lunch (shhhhhh).
