Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg until fully combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Heat the Pan

    In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Ensure the pan is evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pancake

    Pour the batter into the skillet to form a large pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

  6. 6

    Flip the Pancake

    Carefully flip the pancake and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.

Topping Assembly

  1. 7

    Add Toppings

    Once the pancake is cooked, transfer it to a serving plate. Top with fresh blueberries and sprinkle chocolate chips over the top.

  2. 8

    Drizzle with Syrup

    Finish by drizzling maple syrup over the pancake to enhance the flavor.
