Ingredients:

(Makes 8–10 pancakes)

  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons sugar (45 g)
  • 1 sachet (8 g) vanilla sugar or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons neutral oil (45 ml, such as vegetable or canola)
  • 125 g (½ cup) plain or vanilla yogurt
  • 60 ml (¼ cup) milk
  • 100 g (¾ cup) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • A pinch of salt
  • 50 g (about ¼ cup) chocolate chips or chopped chocolate

Instructions:

Step 1: Make the Batter

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, sugar, and vanilla sugar (or extract) until light and slightly frothy. Add the oil, yogurt, and milk, then whisk again until smooth and creamy.

Step 2: Add Dry Ingredients

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Don’t overmix—the batter should be smooth but slightly thick.

Step 3: Fold in the Chocolate

Gently fold in the chocolate chips or chopped chocolate. You can add more if you’re a chocoholic!

Step 4: Cook the Pancakes

Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a bit of oil or butter. Pour 2–3 tablespoons of batter per pancake into the skillet and cook for 1–2 minutes, until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Tips for Best Results:

  • Don’t overmix the batter to keep pancakes soft and airy.
  • Adjust thickness with a little extra milk if the batter feels too thick.
  • Serve warm with maple syrup, banana slices, whipped cream, or extra chocolate drizzle!

Storage:

These pancakes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months. Reheat in the microwave or toaster.
