Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 ½ cups milk

  • 2 large eggs

  • ¼ cup melted butter (or oil)

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • ¾–1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.

  3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix (a few lumps are okay).

  4. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.

  5. Heat a lightly greased skillet or griddle over medium heat.

  6. Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.

  7. Cook until bubbles form on top and edges look set (about 2–3 minutes).

  8. Flip carefully and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.

  9. Serve warm with butter and syrup.

Equipment

Notes

 

  • Sprinkle chocolate chips directly onto the batter after pouring onto the skillet to prevent burning.

  • If pancakes are browning too fast, lower the heat slightly.

  • For extra fluffy pancakes, let batter rest 5 minutes before cooking.
