Homemade Pancakes Recipe #1 - Delicious Chocolate Chip Pancakes

Here is the very first recipe for homemade pancakes that I posted here. I have to tell you that the reason I posted this recipe as first one is that I like Chocolate Chip Pancakes the best. If you enjoy eating chocolate chip cookies or muffins, you will definitely love these pancakes.

Ingredients for chocolate chip pancakes:

• 1 cup milk
• 1 ½ cups sifted flour
• ¾ tsp. salt
• 1 beaten egg
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 ½ tsp. baking powder

How to prepare chocolate chip pancakes:

1. First sift and measure the flour and then add the salt and baking soda. It’s important to do it in the correct order so that you don’t use too much. Next sift or stir them together gently until it’s well combined.
2. Take a separate bowl, combine the beaten egg, milk, and vegetable oil, then stir the ingredients together being careful not to over-beat the egg. Use a spoon and combine thoroughly.
3. Now the next step - you will combine the wet and dry ingredients. Add the wet mixture slowly pouring it over top of the dry ingredients.
4. Stir them together. Remember not to beat the mixture, just mix ingredients slightly until they are combined. Even if there are a few lumps, that is okay. You will avoid lumps by sifting the flour beforehand and mixing the wet ingredients. Avoid over-mixing because this will cause the pancakes to be tough.
5. Use a wide pan or skillet on the stovetop. I use the griddle because I can cook more. Lightly grease the pan or griddle with vegetable oil.
6. Turn the stove onto medium high or the griddle onto 350°. Remember to make sure it is hot enough before you add the batter.
7. Pour the batter onto the pan. For basic pancakes, after pouring, they should measure about 4 to 5 inches in diameter.
8. Check that the pancakes aren’t touching each other.
9. Put chocolate chips over each pancake. Put about 10- 15 chocolate chips for each. You can put more if you like.
10. Wait for about 2 to 5 minutes. Pancakes will start to bubble. When you notice that the bubbles are even throughout the pancake, use a spatula to carefully flip them over. Pancakes should be golden brown.
11. Cook them on the griddle for 2 to 3 minutes until the pancake moves easily from the pan when you touch it.
12. Serve it with butter and syrup.
