Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1.25 cups milk
- 1 whole large egg
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0 as needed butter or cooking spray (for greasing the pan)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
Step 4
Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula to ensure even distribution.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
Step 6
Scoop about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter slightly if needed.
Step 7
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Step 9
Serve the pancakes warm, topped with your favorite additions like maple syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
