Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Filling and Toppings
- 1 cup cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions
- 1/4 cup sour cream
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. This mixture forms the base of your pancake batter.
- Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, large egg, and melted butter until well combined to ensure a smooth batter.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir gently until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes fluffy.
- Heat Skillet: Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and allow it to warm up thoroughly before cooking.
- Cook Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, indicating the bottom is set, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
- Assemble Tacos: Transfer pancakes to a plate. For each pancake, add a layer of crumbled cooked breakfast sausage, sprinkle with shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, and sliced green onions to create a flavorful filling.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Top the filled pancakes with a dollop of sour cream and serve immediately, enjoying a tasty and innovative breakfast taco alternative.
Notes
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent pancakes from sticking and to ensure even cooking.
- For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños to the filling or top with hot sauce.
- Customize fillings with your favorite breakfast ingredients like scrambled eggs, avocado, or sautéed peppers.
- Leftover pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator and gently reheated in a skillet or microwave.
