Scrambled pancakes are perhaps 2024’s biggest TikTok trend – more than 28 million people have watched the video by TikToker @archivedchef. We tested the trend and gave them a resounding thumbs-up. They’re super tasty and easier to make than traditional pancakes, and they actually have a precedent in Austria, where exists a similar dish called Kaiserschmarrn.

Ingredients
Method
- 4 T vegetable oil
- 1 ¼ cup milk
- 2 large free-range eggs
- 1 x 300 g Woolworths flapjack, pancake and waffle mix
- 2 T butter
- 2 t ground cinnamon
- 2 T caster sugar
- For serving:
- mixed berries
- whipped cream
- caramelised banana
- maple syrup
- icing sugar
Method
Ingredients
1. Add the oil, milk and eggs to a measuring jug and whisk until combined.
2. Place the flapjack/pancake mix, caster sugar and ground cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the egg mixture. Whisk together until no lumps remain. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
3. Heat a pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Pour in a third of the batter and let it sit undisturbed for 2–3 minutes.
4. One the pancake starts solidifying, use a spatula or wooden spoon to “scramble” the half-cooked pancake batter, breaking it into little pieces as it cooks. This should take about 5 minutes. Add another third of the batter as well as the cinnamon and sugar, letting it caramelise in the pan and coat the scramble. After another 5 minutes, repeat the process with the remaining batter.
5. Serve the pancakes with berries and cream or bananas and maple syrup, or simply dust with icing sugar.
