Buttermilk Waffles with Peach Blueberry Compote

These Buttermilk Waffles with Peach Blueberry Compote are light, fluffy, and super easy to make! The peach blueberry compote is such a delicious summery topping, especially if you can find the juiciest peaches and freshest blueberries! An extra drizzle of maple syrup and a pat of butter puts these over the top! #brunch #waffles #buttermilk

For the waffles

  • 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla

Instructions

waffles

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and brown sugar until smooth. Add the melted butter and vanilla and whisk again. Add the buttermilk and whisk to combine. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet, stirring with a rubber spatula until just combined. Don't overmix! 

  2. Preheat your waffle iron to its medium-high setting. Spray both sides of iron with cooking spray. Pour batter onto the waffle iron, leaving about 1/2'' on the sides. Cook or 4-5 minutes or until golden brown.

  3. Serve the waffles with the peach blueberry compote, an extra drizzle of maple syrup, and whipped cream/Greek yogurt/or a pat of butter if desired!

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the peaches, blueberries, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes or so, until mixture is juicy, fruit is beginning to break down, and compote is a deep blue/purple color.

Recipe Notes

*I served these with a dollop of vanilla Greek yogurt, but whipped cream, whipped coconut cream, and/or a pat of butter (or even a whipped maple butter!) would be amazing here!
*Extra peach blueberry compote keeps great in the fridge for up to 1 week, and it's great on ice cream, oatmeal, and yogurt bowls!
