Equipment

Electric griddle optional

Ingredients

1 cup (128 g) Whole white wheat flour hard white wheat
1 teaspoon (4 g) Baking powder
½ teaspoon (3 g) Baking soda
¼ teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Ground cinnamon
1 cup (240 g) Buttermilk
1 large Egg
2 tablespoons (26 g) Avocado oil any neutral flavored oil
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
⅓ cup (55-60 g) Chocolate chips dark or semi sweet

Instructions

In a medium or large bowl whisk the dry ingredients together.
1 cup (128 g) Whole white wheat flour, 1 teaspoon (4 g) Baking powder, ½ teaspoon (3 g) Baking soda, ¼ teaspoon Salt, ¼ teaspoon Ground cinnamon
Add the wet ingredients and whisk until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
1 cup (240 g) Buttermilk, 1 large Egg, 2 tablespoons (26 g) Avocado oil, 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract, ⅓ cup (55-60 g) Chocolate chips
Preheat an electric griddle or large frying pan to medium/low heat. Coat the pan/griddle with butter or oil and pour ¼ cup batter portions onto the hot surface. Let cook 2-3 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown and the tops start to bubble. Flip and cook on the other side until done (2-3 minutes). The tops should spring back when lightly pressed with your finger. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately or cool and store.

Notes

If the pancake batter is too thick add a little bit more buttermilk or regular milk.

If it is too thin let it set for 5-10 minutes.
