Heat a greased skillet over medium. Pour ¼ cup of batter per pancake. Cook until surface bubbles form, flip, and brown until golden. Repeat to make 12–15 small pancakes.
Fry in a skillet or bake until crispy. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
Rinse and dry all produce. Slice the apple and peach; cube the cantaloupe and pineapple. Keep berries whole.
Arrange pancakes in a curved line down the center of a large board. Surround with fruit clusters. Add bacon stacks, butter cubes, and a small bowl of maple syrup.
Top with fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately while warm and allow guests to build their own plates.
Notes
Keep syrups and spreads in small containers so the pancakes don't get soggy before they reach the plate.
Serve:Pair with yogurt or cream cheese for dipping, coffee, tea, fresh juice, a pineapple and banana smoothie, or a seasonal fall mocktail.Store: Keep leftover pancakes and bacon in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, and keep cut fruits in a sealed container for the same duration. For longer storage, freeze pancakes in a single layer before transferring to a freezer bag for up to 1 month, then reheat in a toaster or oven.
