Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1 cup milk (can be dairy or non-dairy for preference)

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1 large egg, room temperature

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark, based on preference)

2 tablespoons butter or neutral oil (for cooking)

Maple syrup and additional creamy peanut butter for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, use a whisk to thoroughly combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Ensure there are no lumps, and the ingredients are well mixed.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, creamy peanut butter, large egg, and pure vanilla extract. Continue whisking until the peanut butter is fully incorporated and the mixture has a smooth consistency.

      Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined; it's okay if there are a few lumps; avoid over-mixing. Carefully fold in the chocolate chips to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.

        Heat Griddle: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, add 1 tablespoon of butter or oil to the skillet and allow it to melt, ensuring even coating on the bottom.

          Cook Pancakes: For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes, approximately 2-3 minutes. Flip with a spatula, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked through.

            Repeat Cooking: Continue this process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed to prevent sticking.

              Serve: Stack the pancakes on a warm serving plate. Drizzle generously with maple syrup and add a dollop of extra creamy peanut butter on top if desired. Serve warm for the best flavor experience!
