Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

¾ cup milk
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 large egg
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup miniature chocolate chips, or more to taste
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Combine milk and vinegar in a bowl and set aside for 5 minutes to "sour" the milk. You are essentially making your own buttermilk with this step.
  • Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • Whisk egg, butter, and vanilla extract into "soured" milk until well combined. Pour flour mixture into the wet ingredients and whisk until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Batter will be thick. Allow batter to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat, and coat with cooking spray.
  • Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip pancake with a spatula, and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 more minutes. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. Semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips will work well.
  • If you don't have mint extract, you can use 1 teaspoon of peppermint extract instead.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the pancakes tough.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. If the heat is too high, the pancakes will cook too quickly and the inside will be raw.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fresh berries.
