Learn how to make delicious Savory Pancake Tacos Recipe. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (you can swap half for whole wheat for extra heartiness)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground if you have it)
  • 1 cup buttermilk (or 1 cup milk + 1 tablespoon lemon juice, let sit 5 minutes)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus more for cooking)
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped scallions or fresh herbs (like chives or parsley) for a bright note
  • Optional fillings: scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, sautéed mushrooms, shredded cheese, avocado slices, or sautéed greens

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and black pepper. This dry mix is the backbone of your pancakes — simple, like the ingredients Mama Lu would have gathered from the pantry.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then stir in the buttermilk and melted butter. The buttermilk adds that tender tang that keeps the pancakes from feeling heavy.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir gently until just combined. Don’t overmix — a few lumps are okay. Stir in the chopped scallions or herbs to add a fresh, lively hint.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat. Brush lightly with butter for that golden crust Mama Lu’s skillet cornbread always had.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake into the pan, spreading gently if needed to form a round shape. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set.
  6. Flip carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the pancake is cooked through and golden on both sides. Keep your cooked pancakes warm on a baking sheet in a low oven while you finish the batch.
  7. Once you’ve got your stack of savory pancakes, it’s time to assemble the tacos. Fill each pancake with your choice of savory fillings — scrambled eggs and bacon, sautéed mushrooms and cheese, or even a dollop of mashed avocado and greens.
  8. Fold gently like a taco and serve warm. If you want to get fancy, add a drizzle of hot sauce or a sprinkle of fresh herbs on top.
