Fluffy Chocolate Chip Pancakes are a quick and delicious breakfast treat, featuring light and airy pancakes studded with sweet chocolate chips. This recipe yields tender pancakes perfect for a cozy morning, served warm with your favorite syrup or toppings.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder (aluminum-free)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons butter (melted)

Additional

  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Make the pancake batter: In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar to ensure they are well combined and aerated.
  2. Add wet ingredients and mix: Create a well in the center of the dry mixture and pour in the milk, egg, and melted butter. Whisk or mix with a fork until the batter is smooth without lumps. Gently fold in the chocolate chips to evenly distribute them throughout the batter.
  3. Heat the cooking surface: Preheat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter, cooking spray, or oil to prevent sticking.
  4. Cook the pancakes: Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for about 2 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip carefully and cook the other side for about 1 minute until golden and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  5. Serve warm: Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm if desired. Serve immediately topped with syrup, butter, or your favorite pancake toppings for a satisfying breakfast.

Notes

  • Use aluminum-free baking powder for best flavor and fluffiness.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes light and tender.
  • Adjust heat as needed to avoid burning the pancakes.
  • For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • Chocolate chips can be substituted or complemented with blueberries or nuts.
