Oven-Baked Peach Skillet Pancake

Step 1
Place a cast iron skillet in the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2
Mix flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cardamom, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3
Whisk milk, peach nectar, egg, and 2 tablespoon melted butter together in a separate bowl. Add to the flour mixture with 1 1/2 cup sliced peaches; mix until well blended. Set remaining peaches aside.

Step 4
Remove the skillet from the oven with a heat-proof oven mitt; it will be hot. Brush the bottom and sides with remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter. Add pancake mixture and spread out evenly. Arrange remaining peach slices over top and sprinkle with sugar.

Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes.

Step 6
Let cool slightly and serve with maple syrup.
