I’ve been seeing these AMAZING looking scallion pancake burritos from a place called Forsythe Fire Escape on TikTok and I knew I had to recreate them myself! Scallion Pancakes are one of my favorite things to eat and I just knew the Scallion Pancake Breakfast Burritos were going to be spectacular. The scallion pancake really elevates the overall burrito and I highly recommend giving this one a try!

Tips for these Scallion Pancake Burritos

I made these scallion pancake burritos similar to the TikTok trend a couple years back with the tortilla and eggs, so there are a couple things that are super important when making these burritos so that they stay together and don’t totally fall apart.

First off, it’s veryyy important to completely and thoroughly butter your pan before cooking the eggs. I have found butter to be better suited than cooking oil for these since it makes everything stick less. If you don’t do this, the eggs and/or scallion pancake will be sticking to the pan and make everything much more difficult.

Another super important step for these breakfast burritos is adding the cheese onto the eggs before putting the scallion pancake back on top. The cheese will act as a binder between the two and make sure they stick together during the whole process.

The final tip for these scallion pancake burritos is to make sure to thaw them out before starting everything. This will make it easier to roll them out and easier to form into a “tortilla” when making the burritos.

These green onion pancakes are fantastic as a side dish at dinner, and I love to cook them up for a lazy Sunday night in, but these breakfast burritos might be my favorite dish I’ve ever created with these scallion pancakes! They give the dish such a great crunch along with an amazing savory flavor.

How do you eat Trader Joe’s scallion pancakes?

To eat these scallion pancakes, all you have to do is cook them up in a pan until they’re golden brown on each side. You don’t even need to put oil in the pan! I also love throwing these in the air fryer for a little extra crunch. Then most of the time, I’ll slice them up (sort of pizza style), and dip each slice into the provided sauce – yum!

As always, if you give these a try, let me know what you think and tag me on Instagram or TikTok!

Ingredients Method

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x?

• 1 Scallion Pancake I used the frozen Green Onion Pancake at Trader Joe's.
• 1 Hashbrown My favorite hashbrowns ever are the frozen hashbrowns at TJ's.
• 2 Eggs, scrambled
• 1-2 tbsp Pico de Gallo
• ½ Avocado
• 2 tbsp Shredded Cheese

Method

 

1. Preheat your air fryer or oven to 400°. Cook the hashbrowns for 12 minutes, flipping halfway.
2. Let your scallion pancakes thaw at room temperature for 5-10 minutes. Once thawed enough so that they are rollable, roll them out with a rolling pin to flatten them out. This helps the scallion pancake have more of a burrito-like form.
3. In a medium pan on medium-high heat, butter your pan and add your scallion pancake. Cook until one side is golden brown and then remove the scallion pancake from the plan.
4. Add the scrambled eggs to the pan. Once they are nearly done cooking, add your shredded cheese and let that melt. The cheese will act as a binder between the eggs and the scallion pancake.
5. Once the cheese is melted, add the scallion pancake back on top of the eggs. Make sure to have the side that you have not cooked facing up.
6. When your eggs and scallion pancake have come together, flip the whole thing so that you are now cooking the other side of the scallion pancake. Once fully cooked, remove this from the pan.
7. Add in your hashbrown, avocado, pico de gallo, and additional cheese, wrap up your burrito and enjoy!!
