Here Are Some of the Best Breakfast Foods You’ve Never Tried

Souffle Pancakes

This Japanese recipe takes all the flavorful elements of an ordinary pancake and elevates the texture of this food to be even more delicious. It’s also simple to make!

The process of baking souffle pancakes is similar to regular pancakes, but you’ll need a mixer. First, use the mixer to whip your egg whites and sugar together until you’ve created a fluffy meringue. Next, add this meringue to your egg yolk with flour to make your souffle batter. Once it’s ready, plop this batter onto a heated stovetop.

As these souffle pancakes cook, you’ll notice that the height of the batter will grow. Once you’ve flipped and baked your pancake thoroughly, you’ll have thick, fluffy flapjacks that mix the classic taste of pancakes with the rich texture of a cake.

Ingredients

2 eggs
1 tablespoon milk
¼ cup cake flour
2 tablespoons sugar

Gallo Pinto

This dish is a classic Costa Rican recipe that’ll start off your day with a hearty and balanced meal. First, we recommend adding a traditional mixture of onion, garlic, and black beans into a heated pan.

Next, you’ll cook brown rice and mix your seasoned and sautéed black beans and onions. We recommend including pico de gallo and your choice of chicken, beef, or bacon on top. Of course, you can change the proportions and ingredients for this dish as needed.

Ingredients

½ onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups black beans
¼ cup pico de gallo
3 cups brown rice
choice of meat (ingredient amount varies)
