Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 cups mini chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, (melted)
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 eggs ((large), separated)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Lightly grease a large skillet or griddle with butter or non-stick spray, wipe out any excess with a paper towel, and set over low heat to preheat.
  • Place the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Add the mini chocolate chips.
  • Whisk the melted butter, buttermilk, egg yolks, and vanilla together, then add the liquid mixture to the bowl with the dry ingredients.
  • Fold together (just a few strokes) until a few streaks of flour remain.
  • Whip the egg whites to stiff peaks,* then fold them gently into the batter until just barely combined (do not overmix).
  • Drop the batter by the 1/4-cupful, onto the greased, preheated skillet.
  • Cook until the edges look set and small bubbles are beginning to pop towards the center of the pancakes.
  • Flip the pancakes and continue to cook until they are golden brown on both sides.
