Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk (dairy or a dairy alternative)

1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup chocolate chips (semisweet or dark)

Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

    In a separate bowl, mix the milk, peanut butter, egg, and vanilla extract until the peanut butter is completely incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

      Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. If desired, fold in chocolate chips at this stage.

        Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.

          Once hot, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until golden brown.

            Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as necessary.

              Serve pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup, topped with extra chocolate chips, and a dollop of peanut butter, if desired.
