# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and nutmeg or cinnamon. Stir in chocolate chips to distribute evenly.
02 -
Create a well in the center of the dry mixture and add the milk, beaten egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Gently mix until just combined; small lumps should remain to avoid overworking the batter.
03 -
Allow the batter to sit for 5 to 10 minutes to hydrate the flour and develop texture. Add 30 to 45 ml additional milk if the batter is too thick after resting.
04 -
Heat a lightly greased skillet or griddle over medium to medium-high heat. Pour 60 ml (1/4 cup) scoops of batter onto the surface, spreading gently if needed. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and edges look set, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook the opposite side for another 2 to 3 minutes until golden and cooked through.
05 -
Serve pancakes warm with maple syrup, butter, or preferred toppings.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Do not overmix the batter to maintain a tender texture; some lumps are desirable.
