Making pancakes just got easier and tastier than you could imagine!

Ingredients You’ll Need

Before we start, let’s gather all the ingredients. For this recipe, you’ll need:

• 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
• 3 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
• 1 teaspoon of salt
• 1 tablespoon of white sugar
• 1 1/4 cups of milk
• 1 egg
• 3 tablespoons of melted butter
• 1/2 cup of chocolate chips

Step-by-Step Guide

Now that we have everything ready, let’s get cooking!

Step 1: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir these together until they’re well mixed.

Step 2: Add the Wet Ingredients

Next, add in the milk, egg, and melted butter. Stir everything together until you have a smooth batter. Don’t worry if there are a few lumps – that’s perfectly normal!

Step 3: Stir in the Chocolate Chips

Now for the fun part – add in the chocolate chips! Stir these into the batter until they’re evenly distributed.

Step 4: Preheat the Instant Pot

Turn on your Instant Pot and set it to the ‘Sauté’ function. Allow it to preheat for a few minutes.

Step 5: Cook the Pancakes

Once the Instant Pot is hot, pour in about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. You should be able to fit about 3 pancakes in the pot at a time. Cook these for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they’re golden brown.

Step 6: Repeat Until Done

Continue cooking the pancakes in batches until all the batter is used up. Remember to stir the batter before cooking each batch to ensure the chocolate chips are evenly distributed.

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy!

Once all the pancakes are cooked, serve them up with your favorite toppings. I personally love a bit of maple syrup and some fresh berries, but feel free to get creative!

No matter how you top ’em or tweak the recipe, one thing’s for certain: these Instant Pot chocolate chip pancakes will become a new weekend tradition. So fire up that Instant Pot, gather your ingredients, and get ready to indulge in a breakfast that’s equal parts cozy and downright decadent.
