Description

These Chocolate Chip Pancakes are soft, fluffy, and filled with melty mini chocolate chips in every bite. A comforting breakfast classic made with simple ingredients, perfect for mornings when you want something extra special.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  2. Add the buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix; small lumps are okay.
  3. Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips. Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes.
  4. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and lightly grease it.
  5. Pour 1/3 to 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake. When bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, flip and cook until golden brown on both sides.
  6. Serve warm with butter and maple syrup, or extra chocolate chips if desired.

Notes

  • Swap mini chips with dark chocolate or white chocolate for variation.
  • Add cinnamon, banana slices, or a few berries for extra flavor.
  • Letting the batter rest helps make the pancakes fluffier.
  • Freeze leftovers with parchment between each pancake for easy reheating.
  • Reheat in the microwave or toaster until warm.
