Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups milk whole, 2%, or your preferred type
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries hulled and diced
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet or milk chocolate
  • Extra butter or oil for cooking
  • Maple syrup whipped cream, or additional strawberries for serving (optional)

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Griddle or non-stick skillet
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Batter:
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Mix the Wet Ingredients:
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
  6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
  7. Add Strawberries and Chocolate Chips:
  8. Gently fold in the diced strawberries and chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  9. Cook the Pancakes:
  10. Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
  11. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to set, about 2-3 minutes.
  12. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  13. Serve:
  14. Remove the pancakes from the griddle and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.
  15. Serve the pancakes stacked, topped with maple syrup, whipped cream, or additional strawberries, if desired.

Notes

Even Cooking: To ensure even cooking, make sure the griddle is properly preheated before adding the batter.
Keep Warm: If making a large batch, keep the pancakes warm in a low oven (about 200°F) while you finish cooking the rest.
