For extra flavor, try adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the wet ingredients. If you don't have wheat germ on hand, you can substitute it with an equal amount of additional white whole wheat flour. Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate chips, such as dark chocolate or milk chocolate. For even lighter pancakes, use unsweetened applesauce in place of the melted margarine.
