Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
Place a 10-inch oven-safe skillet (such as cast iron) in the oven to warm up while preparing the pancake batter.
Peel and slice the peaches into thin segments.
In a blender, combine the eggs, milk, flour, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until the batter is smooth and lump-free. Let it rest for a few minutes.
Carefully remove the heated skillet from the oven. Add the unsalted butter to the skillet, swirling it around until melted and evenly coating the bottom.
Add the peach slices to the skillet in an even layer. Sprinkle the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon over the peaches. Cook on medium heat on the stovetop for 1-2 minutes to slightly caramelize the peaches.
Pour the prepared pancake batter over the peaches, ensuring it evenly covers the fruit.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pancake is golden and puffed around the edges.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pancake cool for about 5 minutes. It will deflate slightly as it cools.
Dust the pancake with powdered sugar before serving, if desired. Slice into wedges and serve warm.
