Description

I made these in my dorm on Friday mornings to kick off the weekend- most of them were eaten straight out of the pan by the line of friends drawn by the scent of melting chocolate! Serve with maple syrup or sliced strawberries.

Ingredients
  • 1 ¾ cups white whole wheat flour
  • ¼ cup wheat germ
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ¾ cups skim milk
  • ¼ cup margarine, melted
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 3 tablespoons demerara sugar
  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • cooking spray
Directions
  1. 1. Combine flour, wheat germ, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Set bowl aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together the skim milk, melted margarine, eggs, and sugar. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients; stir in the wet ingredients, being careful not to over mix the batter. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  2. 2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and coat with cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the skillet, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip with a spatula, and cook until golden brown on the other side.
