Ingredients

Scale

Pancake Batter

  • 200 grams soft white wheat berries (equivalent to 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour)
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 5 tbsp avocado oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Breakfast Filling

  • 1 package sausage (approximately 12 oz)
  • 4 cups shredded hash brown potatoes
  • 4 eggs
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Shredded cheese (about 1 cup, optional)
  • Maple syrup for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Prepare Pancake Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, milk, avocado oil, eggs, baking powder, and salt. Stir well until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
  2. Cook Sausage and Hash Browns: Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of oil. Fry the sausage, breaking it apart, alongside the shredded hash brown potatoes. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper as they cook. Stir and flip until the sausage is browned and the potatoes are crispy and cooked through.
  3. Cook Pancakes: Push the cooked sausage and potatoes to one side of the griddle and reduce the heat to low. Add more oil if needed. Spoon the pancake batter onto the griddle, forming small to medium-sized pancakes. Cook for a few minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
  4. Scramble Eggs: Beat the eggs with a splash of milk. In a separate pan or on the griddle if space allows, scramble the eggs with shredded cheese, salt, and pepper to your preference until fully cooked but still soft.
  5. Assemble Breakfast Tacos: Use the freshly cooked pancakes as soft taco shells. Layer inside each pancake a portion of the crispy hash brown potatoes, sausage, and scrambled eggs. Drizzle with maple syrup for a sweet-savory finish. Fold and serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • You can substitute sausage with bacon or a vegetarian sausage alternative.
  • Feel free to add toppings such as avocado slices, salsa, or hot sauce for extra flavor.
  • Using whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients to the pancakes for a healthier option.
  • Pancakes work best when cooked on low heat to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
  • Maple syrup adds a sweet contrast that balances the savory ingredients but can be adjusted to taste or omitted.
