Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well combined.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, oil, and the yolk of the egg until smooth.
  3. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients while stirring gently with a spatula until just combined.
  4. Whip Egg Whites: In a clean bowl, whip the egg whites to stiff peaks using an electric mixer, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Fold in Egg Whites: Carefully fold whipped egg whites into the batter, maintaining volume for fluffiness.
  6. Add Chocolate Chips: Sprinkle in the chocolate chips, gently folding them into the batter until evenly distributed.
  7. Cook Pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, coat with oil, and pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form, then flip and cook until golden.
  8. Repeat: Continue with remaining batter, stacking pancakes on a warm plate as you cook.
