Bourbon Peaches and Coconut Cream Pancakes with Bourbon Cream Syrup
Sometimes I do thoughtless things.
Things like forgetting to put the cream on the Bourbon Peaches and CREAM pancakes.
Sometimes I am just so excited about a recipe. So excited in fact, that I forget to actually add the ingredients that make up the recipe. I am not even talking little things like maybe a final drizzle of chocolate or a sprinkle of basil. No, I am talking big things. Things that are in the darn title of the recipe.
Things that make the recipe good.
Yes, I forgot to add the final dollop of whipped cream to the top of this stack. I got through the whole set of photos and then cut into the stack and it hit me.
Fudge.
I forgot the whipped cream.
The final dollop of whipped cream.
The whipped cream that ties the whole dish together.
Not gonna lie, I was so annoyed.
One, I loved the photos I had taken.
Two, I only made half the recipe since it was only me and I was leaving in a couple of days for South Carolina. Meaning I had just cut into my only stack. There would be no more taking any photos of this stack.
Three, the sun was setting and I was out of light for the day.
Oh and yes, if you are wondering I made pancakes at 7:00pm that day.
It was pretty darn awesome. Seriously, you can’t beat breakfast for dinner.
So……
Obviously the next morning I got up and made these all over again. These pancakes are just too good to not show you them the proper way.
Bourbon peaches, coconut cream and bourbon cream syrup.
I am declaring them summer’s favorite pancake. I know I probably do not have that kind of authority, but really you can’t beat peaches and cream. Especially when it is bourbon peaches and coconut cream!
Match made in sweet fruit heaven.
First of all, I could eat the caramelized bourbon peaches all day. Really I could probably just keep spooning them into my mouth morning and night. They are incredible. But then there is the fluffy cream pancakes.
So darn fluffy it is insane. I chose to use coconut cream which I am hearing you can actually buy in the store already separated from the coconut water? Personally I still prefer to buy just the regular canned coconut milk since I love using the coconut water I get from the can. Anyway, I know some of you guys are not all that into coconut and man if that’s the case I am so sorry. I just cannot stop the coconut recipes. They are too good!
If coconut is not your thing you can easily swap in regular cream and whipped cream. Still awesome.
Well I mean come on. That really needs no explanation. It is sweet, sticky, slightly bourbonie and when it hits those caramelized peaches, coconut whipped cream and fluffy pancakes, whoa – it is honestly one of the greatest tastes ever. Honestly not even exaggerating.
When I talk food, I don’t mess around.
Alright, fine. Sometimes I can get a little over zealous with the exclamation marks, but I have tried to tame those lately. Ugh. I am so embarrassing, I get way too excited when I talk food.
FYI if you start a conversion with me don’t let me start talking about food and blogging. I get wordy and could go on forever.
And ever.

Instructions
-
To make the syrup, add the maple syrup, bourbon, butter and coconut milk to a small sauce pot. Bring to a boil and then reduce to low. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove and set aside.
-
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a pat of butter. Slice one peach and dice the other. Add the sliced peach to the skillet and sprinkle with 1/2 a tablespoon of brown sugar. Cook for 2 or 3 minutes and then flip and cook another 2 or 3 minutes or until caramelized and soft. Remove from the heat and add a splash of bourbon to the pan. Toss well and then remove and slide the peaches on to a plate. Return the skillet to the stove and add more butter if needed. Add the diced peaches to the skillet and sprinkle with 1/2 a tablespoon of brown sugar. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and add a splash of bourbon to the pan. Toss well and keep warm.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, baking powder and salt until combined. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, egg, melted coconut oil or butter and the vanilla extract, then mix it into the dry ingredients until a batter forms.
-
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low to low heat. Once hot, add a bit of butter and about a 1/4 cup of batter. Place 3 or 4 of the sliced peaches right on top of the the pancakes. Cook until bubbles appear on top, then flip and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Repeat!
-
Serve the pancakes with [coconut whipped cream | https://dev.halfbakedharvest.com/caramelized-coconut-banana-bread-waffle-french-toast/] or whipped cream, then top with the remaining diced bourbon peaches and pour on the bourbon cream syrup.
When (let’s be honest) I know all you want is for me to shut my trap and serve some pancakes!
Lovely pancakes.. looks delicious!!
Thank you, Hari!
We love peaches and coconut. I actually made my first coconut cream the other day. I made the coconut milk from dried unsweetened coconut and boiling water. It took about 8 hours to make, but the next morning there was a nice ring of cream on top. I whipped it up and tasted of my first coconut whipped cream. My husband liked it better than I did. I was just amazed it worked.
Whoa! You made your own?! That sounds incredible. I have to try that!
Thank you, Charlotte!
I could kiss you right now!
Hehe! Thanks Steph!
You got bourbon into breakfast! What a great way to enjoy those fresh peaches!
I agree! Thank you, Kevin!

Happy Blogging!

If someone made these incredible pancakes for me, I think I’d be in love with them for the rest of my life! These are incredible, Tieghan! Definitely going to cry into my bowl of oatmeal today, wishing I had these instead 😉 lol
Haha! Thank you, Georgia! Wish I could send you a stack!
Died and gone to heaven..are you kidding me!!! This is like an evil genius pancake and I love it.
Haha! Thank you, Cathy!
Ahhh, I’ve done the same thing with pictures. Like leaving out the avocado on top of an avocado dish. I always figure it must be a great dish if I’m willing to make it again immediately just to share it. This one looks like it falls in that category, too. Love the peaches on it.
Thank you so much, Nicole!!
So…much…deliciousness….AHHH they look so great! I want to make these my favorite summer pancake too!
Thank you, Julia!
This looks over-the-top good – I just pinned it. 🙂 And pancakes for dinner?! Yes please! Your photos are totally drool-worthy, even without the final dollop of cream 😉
Thank you so very much, Grace!
Love live boozy breakfast!
Yes!
Haha, sounds like something I would do! With or without cream, they look gorgeous! 🙂
Thank you!
Wow you went all out for these pancakes!
I Know! Thanks Erin!
What I would do for a stack of these sexy pancakes!!! I mean, whoa!
Haha Thanks Ashley!
You’re not the only forgetful one, trust me. I’ve accidentally left out crucial ingredients in recipes multiple times, and I’ve also forgotten to turn on the oven, and have gone to check on my food, then realizing that it’s raw 🙂
Oh man, raw food! YUck! Glade I am not alone. Thanks Nessa!
I could melt into a puddle right now. I want these pancakes in mah life! But it’s the middle of winter here, and peach season is so far away. I feel like a kid in january. Christmas is a whole year of sleeps yet. Damn this southern hemisphere.
Oh no!! I am so sorry! Hope you can get a fix somehow. Thanks Sarah!
I’m pretty sure if I ate these every morning, I would be in a WAY better mood at work!
Haha! Yeah, I think I could agree with that one! Thank you!!
Boozy pancakes are officially THE perfect way to begin a day. Fact.
Thanks Hayley!
My last post was peaches, my next post is bourbon. Great minds think alike! They’re stunning!
Haha! Thank you!
p.s. Pinned.
And the pour shots. EXCELLENT. love those. Wish i had an extra set of hands to help me with those and if you do them yourself, even more of a bravo!
Thank you, Averie! I actually hated those shots and wished they were not up so close, but I only had my hands. So hard!
This is amazing! I love it:)
hank you!
very creative! the pancakes look perfect!
Thank you! They are one of my favorite stacks yet!
Oh, dear. These have temptation written all over them! You had me at bourbon. These just went on my must make for brunch list!
xx Erin
Thank you, Erin!! Hope you make them and love them!!
Holy bananas…I want!!! That’s all I’ve got, just that I want!!! 🙂
Haha! Thanks Jocelyn! Happy 4th of July!
These look so good, Tieghan! I LOVE that they are dairy free as I am trying to cut dairy out of my diet. Pinned and sharing on Facebook today. Stopping by from Mom On Timeout. Have a great weekend!
Thank you so much, Julie!! Happy 4th of July!
Happy 4th to you too!
Be still my beating heart! Those look so good, I want them now!! But it’s winter over here and there no peaches anywhere :'(
oh no!! I am so sorry to shove these in you face!! Yikes! Hey, maybe you could buy some frozen peaches and use those!!
Thanks Sarrah!
OMG…those look amazing…and they are perfect since I cannot eat dairy! 🙂 If you keep this up, I am going to lose my title “Queen of Boozy Treats”! LOL Have a great weekend Tieghan!
Haha! Opps!
Thanks Lisa!
I love pancakes for dinner! Love this recipe…pinning!
Me too! Thank you, Gloria!
These look fantastic! Can’t wait to try. 😛 And thank you, thank you, thank you for including a “print” button!! The only thing that would make it better is the ability to print w/a picture (yes even sans final whipped cream dollop 😉 …the pics are awesome and make my mouth water!) But I appreciate you making it easy to print the recipe so we can actually (easily) MAKE it. 🙂 It seems so few recipe sites do that these days; they seem to want to make it as hard as possible to print the recipe and/or save it to our computer (so we can later print it). So thanks again! 🙂
Thank Cheryl!! Hope you love these!
Hi!
This looks like an amazing recipe! I have a question:
Do you think, there will be any benefit to letting the pancake batter sit for a while?
I always let my pancake batter the night before and then refrigerate it. It always makes the pancakes so much fluffier.
Do you think this would be the case with your receipe even though it does not call for buttermilk?
I would love to know what you think 🙂
Thanks!
Mimi
Hi Mimi!
I normally do let my batter sit for 10 to 15 minutes, but have never done over night. I bet those turn out to be some seriously fluffy pancakes! These are already pretty fluffy, but I do not think it would hurt to let the batter sit overnight.
Hope you love these and let me know what you do!
Thanks again!
Thanks Tieghan!
I will definitely let you know how they turn out.
By the way…I have NEVER in my 37 years seen so many incredible recipes amassed in 1 spot. I am very serious about that.
Incredible body of work!
Keep it up!
Mimi
