The Fresh Strawberry Cheesecake Pancake Taco features sliced strawberries and creamy cheesecake mousse inside a folded silver dollar pancake.
The Caramel Banana Pancake Taco comprises creamy cheesecake mousse, vanilla sauce and dulce de leche caramel sauce, topped with sliced bananas.
The Breakfast Pancake Taco comes with scrambled eggs, hickory-smoked bacon, jack cheese and cheddar cheese blend with white cheese sauce.
The Country Chicken and Gravy Pancake Taco comprises crispy chicken, shredded hashbrowns and gravy.
IHOP Culinary vice-president Chef Arthur Carl said: “As the leader in breakfast, we were inspired to expand the Pancake Taco concept following IHOP’s ‘Choco-Pancake’ cultural innovation from last summer.
“We didn’t want to simply redo that item, but rather bring to life a dish that leverages our best-selling pancakes in an innovative way that is both fun and different to deliver guests a unique dining experience.
“These handheld pancake creations lean into our breakfast equity while giving everyone a choice on sweet or savoury – or both – to enjoy during all dayparts.”
The Pancake Tacos will be available until 30 July and have been rolled out across all participating IHOP restaurants nationwide.
