This fun and colorful pancake recipe combines the nutty richness of peanut butter with pockets of melty chocolate chips, all topped off by cheerful rainbow sprinkles for a whimsical twist.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg, then add the milk, peanut butter, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay.
Fold in the chocolate chips and rainbow sprinkles for a wacky and colorful touch!
Preheat a nonstick griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set. Flip carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Serve your Wacky Pancakes warm with your favorite toppings like syrup, whipped cream, extra sprinkles, or fresh fruit for a whimsical breakfast experience!
