🥘 Ingredients

12 items

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Orange zest
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 2 tablespoons Orange juice
• 1 Egg
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup White chocolate chips
• 1 tablespoon Butter or oil (for greasing the pan)

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and orange zest.

2. In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, orange juice, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

3. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

4. Fold in the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

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

6. For each pancake, pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet. Spread the batter slightly if needed to form a round shape.

7. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles begin to form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.

8. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

9. Serve the pancakes warm, topped with additional white chocolate chips, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar, if desired.
