Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 medium eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • cups whole milk, at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • ¾ cup milk chocolate chips
  • coconut oil, or vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, add the eggs and sugar, then beat until smooth.
  • Add the milk, vinegar, and melted butter to the egg mixture and beat until combined.
  • Make a well in the flour mixture and pour the wet ingredients into it. Mix with a whisk until smooth.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Preheat a non-stick griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat, and grease with coconut oil.
  • Scoop ¼ cup of pancake batter onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form on top and the edges are golden brown, which should take about 2 minutes. You can cook as many pancakes at once as your griddle has room for.
  • Flip the pancakes and cook on the other side for 1 to 2 minutes, until cooked all the way through.
  • Serve the pancakes with your favorite pancake toppings.

Notes

 
  • Adjust your burner's temperature to achieve perfect golden-brown pancakes without burning.
  • Allow the melted butter to cool before mixing it with the eggs to prevent scrambling.
  • Substitute apple cider vinegar with white vinegar or lemon juice, adding gradually to avoid curdling.
  • Keep the finished pancakes warm in a low-heat oven while you cook the rest.
  • Make the batter up to 3 days ahead and store it in the fridge for quick use.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat in a toaster oven on medium heat, on a griddle over medium heat, or in the microwave in 20-second increments. 
  • To freeze, place a layer of parchment paper between each pancake, then wrap them all in plastic wrap. Place in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
