Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Pancake Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk Consider using buttermilk for fluffier pancakes.
  • 1 pcs egg
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup Plus extra for drizzling.
  • 1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled Can use turkey or chicken sausage.
  • Cooking spray or butter For greasing the griddle.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat your griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and maple syrup until blended.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Don’t overmix; a few lumps are okay!
  5. Fold in the crumbled sausage, ensuring it gets evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Pour small amounts of batter onto the griddle (about 2 tablespoons for each pancake). Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set (about 2-3 minutes). Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Continue until all the batter is used, keeping the cooked pancakes warm in a low oven.
  8. Serve warm with extra maple syrup drizzled on top.

Notes

For a delicious twist, experiment with different types of sausage or add flavor enhancers like cinnamon or vanilla extract to the batter. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze with parchment paper in between for up to 2 months.
