Lighter Chocolate Chip Pancakes

By: YouKnowWho18 
"I made these in my dorm on Friday mornings to kick off the weekend- most of them were eaten straight out of the pan by the line of friends drawn by the scent of melting chocolate! Serve with maple syrup or sliced strawberries."

Original Recipe Yield 12 pancakes
 

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups white whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup wheat germ
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups skim milk
  • 1/4 cup margarine, melted
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 3 tablespoons demerara sugar
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • cooking spray

Directions

  1. Combine flour, wheat germ, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Set bowl aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together the skim milk, melted margarine, eggs, and sugar. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients; stir in the wet ingredients, being careful not to over mix the batter. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and coat with cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the skillet, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip with a spatula, and cook until golden brown on the other side.
