Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
- 3 ½ teaspoons of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 ¼ cups of milk
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons of melted butter
- Fillings (e.g., scrambled eggs, cooked bacon, sausage, cheese, fruit, or yogurt)
- Maple syrup or honey (for serving)
Optional substitutions:
- For gluten-free Pancake Tacos, use gluten-free all-purpose flour instead.
- If you’re dairy-sensitive, opt for almond milk or oat milk in place of regular milk.
- Vegan options: Use a flax egg (1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal mixed with 3 tablespoons of water) and plant-based butter or oil.
Instructions
- Prepare the pancake batter:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. In another bowl, combine the milk, egg, and melted butter. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. - Cook the pancakes:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading it slightly to form a taco-sized circle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges are golden. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter. - Prepare the fillings:
While the pancakes are cooking, prepare your desired taco fillings. Scramble the eggs, cook the bacon or sausage, and have cheese, fruit, or yogurt ready to go. You can even get creative with toppings like avocado, salsa, or sour cream if you prefer a more savory version. - Assemble the tacos:
Once all your pancakes and fillings are ready, place a few spoonfuls of the filling inside each pancake. Fold the pancake in half like a taco and secure with a toothpick if necessary. - Serve:
Drizzle with maple syrup or honey for a sweet touch or keep it savory with a dash of hot sauce or salsa. Enjoy warm!

- Don’t overmix the batter: To ensure fluffy pancakes, mix the ingredients until just combined. Overmixing can make the pancakes dense and tough.
- Use a ladle for consistency: To make sure all your pancakes are the same size, use a ¼ cup measuring cup or ladle to pour the batter onto the skillet.
- Make-ahead option: You can make the pancakes ahead of time and store them in the fridge or freezer. Simply reheat them in the oven or microwave before filling and serving.
