Fluffy Chocolate Chip Pancakes
What’s better than fluffy pancakes loaded with gooey chocolate chips that you can make while still in your PJs? These chocolate chip pancakes come together in just 30 minutes with a handful of pantry staple ingredients.
Servings: 7 medium pancakes
Equipment
- Nonstick pan
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups buttermilk
- 1 cup chocolate chips dark, milk, white or flavored
- 2 large eggs beaten
- 3 tablespoons butter melted and cooled, plus more to grease skillet
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a large bowl, thoroughly combine dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) with a whisk.
- Combine wet ingredients in a separate bowl (buttermilk, beaten eggs, cooled melted butter, and vanilla extract).
- Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir with a spoon until just incorporated. Add in chocolate chips and stir until just combined. Batter will be lumpy!
- Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat for at least 5 minutes. Preheating your pan is key! Then lightly grease the pan with about ¼ tablespoon of butter (the best option) or non-stick spray.
- Add ½ cup of batter to the skillet. Batter will spread out on its own. Let cook on the first side for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown (use a spatula to peek underneath). Flip your pancake and cook the second side for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Re-grease your pan with butter and repeat.
- Keep pancakes on a baking sheet in a 200℉ oven while making batches. Enjoy!

Notes
- You can make pancakes whatever size you’d like. Add anywhere from a heaping tablespoon (for mini pancakes) to ½ cup (for medium pancakes) or 1 cup (extra-large pancakes) of batter to your pan.
