Chocolate Chip Pancakes
Description
The Chocolate Chip Pancakes recipe starts with a mixture of all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar to create a balanced base that rises well without over-sweetening. Adding milk, beaten egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract produces a smooth batter that is intentionally left slightly lumpy to maintain a light texture. Folding in chocolate chips shortly before cooking spreads sweet bursts of chocolate throughout each pancake.
Cooking the pancakes on a medium-high heat skillet until bubbles form and then flipping to achieve a golden surface on both sides ensures a light, tender interior with a slightly crisp edge. The melted butter in the batter helps create this appealing crust and flavor. Serving these pancakes warm with syrup or other toppings highlights their comforting sweetness and soft texture.
Leftover pancakes can be stored refrigerated in an airtight container for up to five days, making them convenient for busy mornings or snacks. This also allows for easy reheating without losing their characteristic softness and melted chocolate appeal.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
- 1 ½ cup milk
- 1 egg beaten
- 3 Tablespoons butter melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar until combined. Then stir in the milk, egg, butter and vanilla. Mix until just combined. The batter will be lumpy.
- Fold in the chocolate chips. Then let the batter rest for approximately 5 minutes.
- Heat a skillet over medium high heat and spray the pan with a non-stick cooking spray.
- Pour the batter into the pan in approximately ¼ cup measurements. Gently spread the batter out some.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes until you see bubbles start to form and burst on top of the batter. Flip and cook the opposite side until golden brown. Remove the pancake from the skillet to a plate. Continue this process until all the batter is used.
- Serve topped with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days to maintain freshness.
