HOW LONG DOES IT REALLY TAKE TO MAKE PEACH WAFFLES?

This Peach Pecan Waffles recipe takes approximately 35 minutes. TOTAL. This includes:

• About 7 minutes to make the waffle batter
• Close to 10 minutes to cook the waffles
• Around 15 minutes to make the peach syrup

HOW DO I STORE LEFTOVER PEACH PECAN WAFFLES?

Simply reheat the pancakes in the microwave for a few seconds to warm.

HOW CAN I MAKE A HOMEMADE BUTTERMILK SUBSTITUTE?

Most people do not have buttermilk in their refrigerators.

You can easily make a homemade version by using milk and something sour like lemon juice or vinegar.

Simply add 1 tbsp of either lemon juice or white vinegar to milk, stir it, and let it sit for a few minutes before adding it to your recipe.

You can also substitute sour cream or yogurt for buttermilk.

CAN I USE FROZEN PEACHES INSTEAD OF FRESH PEACHES?

Yes, you can use frozen peaches in this recipe instead of fresh peaches.

Using frozen peaches for the syrup will work great.

I suggest sauteing the frozen peaches that you are going to use as a garnish instead of placing them on the waffles frozen.
