Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 C all-purpose flour regular or gluten-free
  • 3/4 tsp xanthan gum omit if using regular all-purpose flour
  • 3 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 1/3 C milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 3 Tbsp butter melted
  • 1/4 C mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, xanthan gum (if using), baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  • In a separate bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together milk, vanilla, egg and butter.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until smooth and all the dry ingredients are combined. Mix in the chocolate chips.
  • Cook the pancakes on medium heat on a buttered (or oiled) griddle or frying pan. Use about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Use your scoop/measuring cup to slightly flatten the pancake on the griddle when you add the batter to the hot pan.
  • Serve hot with maple syrup.

Notes

I like to cook my pancakes in a bit of melted butter to help form a 'crust' on the outside of the pancakes. When following a gluten-free diet, be sure to use gluten-free ingredients. This recipe makes 12 pancakes but can be doubled.
