Ingredients
Scale
Pancake Batter:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- butter or oil for cooking
For the filling:
- 1 cup whipped cream or vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/2 banana, sliced
- maple syrup or honey for drizzling
- powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Pancake Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until just combined (a few lumps are okay).
- Cooking Pancakes: Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour 2–3 tablespoons of batter per pancake and cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter to make about 6 mini pancakes.
- Assembly: Once the pancakes are slightly cooled, gently fold each into a taco shape. Fill with whipped cream or Greek yogurt, then top with fruit. Drizzle with maple syrup or honey and dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Customize with your favorite fruits or add a spoonful of Nutella or peanut butter inside.
- For firmer “taco shells,” cook pancakes slightly longer for more structure.
