In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the buttermilk, egg, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Cook the Pancakes:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading slightly with the back of a spoon.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set.
Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve:
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with additional chocolate chips, sliced bananas, and a drizzle of maple syrup or honey if desired.
