Fluffy ovals filled with sweet or savory fixings for a fun, interactive breakfast.

# What You Need:

→ Pancake Batter

01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tbsp granulated sugar
03 - 1¼ tsp baking powder
04 - ¼ tsp baking soda
05 - ¼ tsp salt
06 - 1 large egg
07 - 1 cup milk
08 - 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter
09 - 1 tsp vanilla extract

→ Sweet Toppings

10 - ½ cup fresh berries
11 - ½ banana, sliced
12 - ½ cup Greek yogurt or whipped cream
13 - 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
14 - 1 tbsp chocolate chips

→ Savory Toppings

15 - 2 scrambled eggs
16 - ¼ cup cooked bacon or breakfast sausage, chopped
17 - ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
18 - ¼ avocado, sliced
19 - 2 tbsp salsa or hot sauce

# How To Make It:

01 - Sift the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a large mixing bowl to ensure even distribution.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk together the large egg, milk, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
03 - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or whisk until just combined; the batter should remain slightly lumpy to ensure fluffiness.
04 - Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of butter or oil.
05 - Pour approximately ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a ladle to gently shape the batter into an oval. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and edges set. Flip carefully and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown.
06 - Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and let them cool for about 1 minute. While still warm, gently fold each oval pancake in half to form a taco shell shape.
07 - Fill the pancake tacos immediately with your choice of prepared sweet or savory toppings. Serve warm while the texture is at its best.
