Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¼ cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Whisk together buttermilk, egg, oil, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl, preferably with a pourable spout.
  • Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and chocolate chips in a small bowl.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into wet ingredients till just combined. It's okay if the batter is lumpy, you don't want to over mix.
  • Heat a griddle to medium or medium high heat. Coat with vegetable oil or butter.
  • Scoop or pour batter into hot griddle. Cook pancakes until bubbles form and bottom is light brown, 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook another 2-3 minutes.
  • Serve with sweetened whipped cream, or butter and syrup.

Notes

This recipe makes a batter that is thin enough to spread in the pan without having to be spread with a spoon or spatula. For even thicker pancakes, you can decrease the buttermilk to just a cup.
