Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1 large egg

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)

2 tablespoons butter or oil (for cooking)

Maple syrup and additional peanut butter for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a spacious mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly mixed. This will ensure an even distribution of the leavening agents and sweetness.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, add the milk, creamy peanut butter, large egg, and vanilla extract. Use a whisk to blend everything together until the peanut butter is completely smooth and incorporated into the mixture.

      Combine Mixtures: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently stir until just combined, being cautious not to over-mix. It’s perfectly fine to have a few lumps in the batter. Finally, fold in the chocolate chips to add melty sweetness.

        Heat Griddle: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, add 1 tablespoon of butter or oil, allowing it to melt and coat the surface evenly. A correctly heated skillet is key to ensuring the pancakes cook perfectly.

          Cook Pancakes: Use a measuring cup to pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Allow the pancakes to cook undisturbed until bubbles begin to form on the surface, roughly 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip them over and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

            Repeat Cooking: Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as necessary to prevent sticking.

              Serve: Stack the freshly cooked pancakes on a warm plate. For a decadent finish, drizzle with maple syrup and add a dollop of extra peanut butter on top, if desired. Serve immediately while warm for the best taste!
