Trader Joe’s Scallion Pancake Ingredients

A simple list for the ultimate savory breakfast wrap.

• 1 Trader Joe’s frozen scallion pancake
• 1–2 large eggs
• 1 handful of fresh spinach
• Half an avocado, sliced
• A spritz of avocado oil, or a small pat of butter
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Chili crisp, to taste

How To Make the Trader Joe’s Scallion Pancake Wrap

A step-by-step guide to this viral and delicious breakfast hack.

1. Fry the Scallion Pancake: In a nonstick pan over medium heat, add a spritz of oil or a small pat of butter. Fry the frozen scallion pancake until it is golden brown and crispy on both sides. Remove it from the pan and set it aside.
2. Wilt Spinach and Cook Eggs: In the same pan, add the handful of spinach and let it wilt down. Once softened, scoot the spinach into a pile in the center of the pan.
3. Combine Pancake and Egg: Pour the whisked eggs directly over the spinach. Use a spatula to break the yolks and spread the eggs gently into a circle roughly the size of the pancake. Before the eggs are fully cooked, place the crispy scallion pancake on top and press down gently so it sticks to the eggs as they finish cooking.
4. Fill, Roll, and Serve: Remove the pancake-egg creation from the pan. Fill with your toppings, like the sliced avocado and a drizzle of chili crisp. Roll it up like a burrito, slice it in half, and serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

For the best, crispiest, and most flavorful scallion pancake wrap.

• How to get the crispiest pancake? The key is to not overcrowd the pan and to let the pancake cook undisturbed for a few minutes on each side in a hot, lightly oiled pan. This allows it to develop a beautiful golden-brown and crispy exterior.
• What is chili crisp? It’s a popular Chinese condiment made from infused chili oil, crispy fried chili flakes, and other aromatics. It adds a fantastic savory, mildly spicy flavor and a wonderful crunchy texture. Trader Joe’s sells its own version, or you can find it at any Asian market.
• Can I add other fillings? Absolutely! This is a fantastic and versatile breakfast wrap. A slice of cheese (like provolone or cheddar) melted on top of the eggs, some crispy bacon, or crumbled sausage would all be delicious additions.
• Can I make this in the air fryer? Yes! You can cook the scallion pancake in the air fryer at 400°F for about 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp. You would then need to cook the egg and spinach separately in a pan and assemble everything at the end.

How To Store a Scallion Pancake Wrap
