2 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for cooking)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, mix milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Prepare Batter:
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy. Fold in chocolate chips.
Preheat Griddle:
Heat a non stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter.
Cook Pancakes:
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Serve:
Serve warm with butter, maple syrup, and extra chocolate chips if desired.
Notes
Storage: Leftover pancakes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the toaster or microwave.
For Extra Flavor: Add a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
Serving Tip: Top with fresh berries, whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for an indulgent treat.
