Method

Pancake Batter

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Add Chocolate Chips

    Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips gently into the batter.

Cooking Pancakes

  1. 5

    Preheat Griddle

    Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a bit of butter or cooking spray.

  2. 6

    Pour Batter

    Using a ladle, pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the griddle for each pancake.

  3. 7

    Cook Pancakes

    Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  4. 8

    Keep Warm

    Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.

Vanilla Whipped Cream

  1. 9

    Whip Cream

    In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.

    Once whipped, set aside until ready to serve with pancakes.
