  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • Maple syrup, for serving (optional)

Notes

📌 Tip: For thicker pancakes, reduce the amount of water slightly. Serve warm with maple syrup for the best flavor. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 2 months. Reheat in the toaster or skillet to keep them fluffy.
