Nani's Fluffy Chocolate Chip Pancakes
These thick and fluffy pancakes are packed with melty chocolate chips and a touch of warmth from vanilla.
recipesbynani.comThere is nothing quite like waking up to the smell of pancakes on a Saturday morning. These chocolate chip pancakes have become a staple in my house because they feel like a special treat without taking all morning to prepare.
My secret is adding a little brown sugar to the batter, which gives them a deeper flavor than the usual recipe. If you want them extra fluffy, make sure you do not overmix the batter, just stir until the flour disappears.
🧺 Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.
- 2
In a separate small bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, it is okay if the batter has a few small lumps.
- 4
Fold in the chocolate chips.
- 5
Heat a lightly oiled frying pan or griddle over medium heat.
- 6
Pour about a quarter cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
- 7
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
💡 Tips
Store any leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days or freeze them for a quick breakfast later. To reheat, just pop them in the toaster or warm them in a pan over low heat until they are soft again.
