Moist, fluffy and loaded with chocolate, these chocolate chip pancakes are a dream come true. They are subtly sweet and infused with just the right amount of vanilla maple essence.
Mix all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Set it aside.
Beat two eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add buttermilk and vanilla extract, and whisk to combine.
Incorporate wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl. Stir to combine but don’t overmix; pancake butter is always a bit lumpy. Then, fold in chocolate chips and combine.
Put 1 tsp butter into a non-stick pancake pan over medium heat. Next, add ⅓ cup of pancake batter into the pan and reduce heat to medium. Cook pancakes from both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Tip: flip the pancakes once you see bubbles on top and the edges are dry.
Serve pancakes warm with maple syrup and butter on top.
Notes
These pancakes are slightly sweet, although you can omit sugar if you prefer only maple syrup as a sweetener. Texture-wise these are soft and fluffy.
