# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Arrange bacon slices in a single layer and cook until crisp, about 8–10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.
02 -
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined; do not overmix for optimal fluffiness.
03 -
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour approximately 60 ml (1/4 cup) of batter for each pancake, forming rounds 12–15 cm in diameter. Cook until bubbles form and edges appear set, about 2 minutes, then flip and cook for 1–2 additional minutes. Place pancakes on a warm plate and cover loosely with foil.
04 -
In a bowl, whisk eggs with milk, salt, and pepper. Melt 1 tbsp butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the egg mixture and gently stir with a spatula until just set and creamy, 3–5 minutes. Remove from heat to prevent overcooking.
05 -
Gently fold each pancake in half to create a taco shape. Fill with a portion of scrambled eggs and one slice of crispy bacon. Drizzle with warm maple syrup and sprinkle with fresh chives or parsley if desired.
06 -
Enjoy immediately while warm for best taste and texture.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
For added flavor, include shredded cheddar cheese with the scrambled eggs.
02 -
Substitute turkey bacon or vegetarian bacon for a lighter or meat-free option.
03 -
If preparing in advance, briefly reheat pancakes before assembling.
04 -
Pair with fresh fruit or a light salad for a balanced brunch.
