Pancake Tacos Ingredients
- 2 pancakes (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup fresh fruit (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, bananas)
- 1/4 cup whipped cream or Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Warm the Pancakes: Heat the pancakes either in a skillet over medium heat for about 1-2 minutes on each side or in the microwave for 20-30 seconds until they are warm and pliable.
- Form the Taco Shells: Fold the warmed pancakes in half carefully to form taco shells, creating a base that can hold the fillings without breaking.
- Fill with Toppings: Spoon fresh fruit onto each folded pancake shell, then add a dollop of whipped cream or Greek yogurt on top. Sprinkle chocolate chips on for an extra sweet touch if desired.
- Drizzle with Syrup: Finally, drizzle the pancakes tacos with maple syrup evenly, adding sweetness and moisture. Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- If using homemade pancakes, slightly thicker pancakes work better for folding without tearing.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute whipped cream or Greek yogurt with coconut cream or a plant-based yogurt.
- Fresh berries can be replaced with any seasonal fruit to suit your taste or availability.
- Microwaving is quicker but heating in a skillet provides better texture and warmth.
