Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 cup buttermilk* see notes for substitution
- 2/3 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup butter melted
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips more can be added if desired
- Additional butter or oil For pan
Instructions
- Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in a bowl. Stir to combine. Add in buttermilk, milk and eggs, stirring just enough to start to combine. Add in melted butter and stir just until combined. Batter will be lumpy and thick. Let batter sit for 2-3 minutes, this will allow time for the baking powder and buttermilk to help puff up the batter. Do not stir after allowing to sit, it's important to keep the air bubbles for fluffy pancakes.
- Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of batter (an ice cream scoop is perfect) into a skillet that has been preheated to medium-low / medium heat (for reference I heat to 4 on a 1-10 scale) and lightly brushed with butter or oil. The batter will be thick and you will need to use your scoop or spoon to help spread the batter out a bit. Sprinkle with chocolate chips.
- When bubbles start to appear on surface and edges of pancake begin to appear to be browning, flip with a spatula and cook until golden. Pancakes should only be flipped once. Transfer to a plate and serve with syrup, butter, chocolate sauce or even peanut butter!

Notes
- *BUTTERMILK SUBSTITUTE If you do not have buttermilk, you can use a buttermilk substitute recipe.
- You can use as few or as many chocolate chips as desired. Chocolate chips can be mixed into the batter if you prefer. I find that doing so gets a bit messy, so I prefer sprinkling on the chocolate chips while cooking.
