Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 medium Ripe bananas
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 1 Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter or oil (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Set aside.

Step 2

In another bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the mashed bananas and whisk until well combined.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

Step 4

Fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.

Step 6

For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter slightly if needed.

Step 7

Cook the pancake for 2-3 minutes, until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.

Step 9

Serve the chocolate chip banana pancakes warm, topped with syrup, sliced bananas, or additional chocolate chips if desired.
