Ingredients: You’ll need flour, baking powder, sugar, eggs, milk, butter, vanilla extract, and plenty of chocolate chips.
The Batter: Nigella’s secret to fluffiness is using a combination of baking powder and eggs, ensuring a light texture.
Melted Butter: Adding melted butter to the batter enhances the richness and prevents dryness.
Vanilla Flavor: A touch of vanilla extract elevates the pancakes with a warm, sweet aroma.
Chocolate Chips: Nigella prefers dark chocolate chips for a deep, rich flavor, but you can use milk or white chocolate.
Resting the Batter: Allowing the batter to rest for 10 minutes improves texture and consistency.
Cooking Method: Use a non-stick pan with a little butter or oil to achieve golden-brown pancakes.
Perfect Flip: Wait until bubbles form on the surface before flipping for even cooking.
