In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk together and set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, add the ripe bananas and mash well with a fork until smooth. Add the eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined.
Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. A few lumps in the batter are fine and actually good for fluffy pancakes.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Heat a small pat of butter in a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once the butter is melted and the pan is hot, add the batter to your desired pancake size.
Cook until the edges are set and the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook the other side until golden.
Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm with maple syrup, whipped cream, Greek yogurt, or your favorite toppings.
