Drizzled with maple syrup and topped with whipped cream and powdered sugar, this fun and sweet recipe is perfect for brunch or a dessert.


Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fillings and Toppings

  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1/2 cup banana slices
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
  • Whipped cream for topping
  • Powdered sugar for garnish


Instructions

  1. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract together until smooth and fully incorporated.
  3. Combine Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
  4. Heat Skillet: Place a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Cook Pancakes: Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the heated skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, watching for bubbles to form on the surface, indicating the pancake is ready to flip. Carefully flip and cook the other side for about 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Repeat Cooking: Remove the cooked pancake and repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
  7. Assemble Tacos: Fold each cooked pancake in half to form a taco shape. Fill each taco with sliced strawberries, banana slices, and mini chocolate chips as desired.
  8. Add Toppings: Drizzle the filled pancake tacos with maple syrup or honey. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle powdered sugar lightly over the top for an extra sweet touch.

Notes

  • Feel free to swap out the fruits for seasonal favorites like blueberries, raspberries, or peaches.
  • For additional flavor, spread a layer of Nutella or peanut butter inside the pancakes before adding the fruit filling.
  • These pancake tacos make an exciting and fun brunch option as well as a delicious dessert treat.
