1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
Preparation:
1. Prep the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
2. Combine: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
3. Cook the Pancakes: Heat a lightly greased griddle or skillet over medium heat. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
4. Assemble the Dish: Once cooked, top each pancake with a generous dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of fresh berries, and a drizzle of maple syrup. For an extra touch of indulgence, add a handful of chocolate chips.
Total Time: Approximately 30 minutes
