Ingredients

Scale

Batter Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free version)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 cup milk (or plant-based milk for vegan option)
  • 1 large egg (or flaxseed egg for vegan option)
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter (or coconut oil for vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fillings and Toppings (Optional)

  • Fresh fruits (berries, banana slices, mango chunks)
  • Maple syrup or honey
  • Yogurt
  • Bacon, scrambled eggs, cheese, avocado, salsa (for savory options)
  • Chopped nuts or peanut butter
  • Powdered sugar (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients—flour, baking powder, and sugar. Add the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract, stirring gently until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
  2. Cook Pancake Shells: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly butter the surface. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top and the edges look set, then flip carefully and cook for another minute until golden brown.
  3. Shape Into Tacos: Immediately after cooking, fold each pancake gently in half to form a taco shape. Place on a wire rack to cool slightly while holding the shape without cracking.
  4. Add Fillings: Fill each pancake taco with your choice of fillings—sweet or savory—layering ingredients for a balanced flavor and texture experience.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Arrange the filled pancake tacos on a serving platter and garnish with your favorite toppings like powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or maple syrup for an inviting and delicious breakfast.

Notes

  • Use medium heat to avoid burning and ensure even cooking.
  • Stir batter just until combined to keep pancakes tender and fluffy; avoid overmixing.
  • Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven to prevent drying out.
  • Fold pancakes into taco shapes immediately after cooking while still warm to prevent cracking.
  • Experiment with different fillings to discover your favorite pancake taco combinations.
