Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten free 1 for 1 flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- dash salt
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups organic plain kefir
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- water, if needed
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in your mixing bowl.
- Mix wet ingredients. Whisk together melted butter and sugar until fully combined. Add kefir, vanilla, and then eggs. Whisk until combined.
- Combine wet & dry ingredients. Pour wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir to combine. If needed, slowly add cool water to thin the batter.
- Stir in chocolate chips. Stir in chocolate chips until fully incorporated.
- Cook the pancakes. Heat a large skillet. Once the pan is warm, use ¼ cup measuring cup to pour circles of batter onto the skillet or griddle. Once the middles are bubbly and the edges looks like they are beginning to cook, flip the pancakes and cook for an additional minute until cooked through.
- Serve & enjoy! Serve these pancakes with maple syrup and butter.
Notes
- The kefir makes the batter thick, to thin it out, slowly add cold water until you reached desired consistency.
- These pancakes are versatile. If you want normal pancakes leave out the chocolate chips. For blueberry pancakes, replace chocolate chips with blueberries.
- You can easily make this dairy free. Replace kefir with dairy free milk and butter with ghee or a vegan butter.
- Store uncooked batter in the fridge in an airtight container for 2-3 days. Cook whenever.
- Allow pancakes to cool completely then store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Reheat in a toaster or toaster oven for a few minutes.
