Pancake Batter

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until evenly mixed.

  2. 2

    Combine the Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  3. 3

    Melt the Butter

    In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in the microwave or on the stove until completely liquid. Allow it to cool slightly.

  4. 4

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Add the melted butter. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  5. 5

    Fold in Chocolate Chips

    Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the batter.

  6. 6

    Heat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.

  7. 7

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Remove the pancakes from the skillet and serve warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, whipped cream, or extra chocolate chips.
