Description
A delicious homemade version of McGriddles featuring fluffy pancakes, savory sausage, and melted cheese, perfect for breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/2 pound ground sausage
- 4 slices of American cheese
- 2 large eggs
- Maple syrup (for drizzling)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter. Combine both mixtures until just blended.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, crack the eggs and cook them to your desired doneness. Season with a little salt if desired.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter for each pancake in the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Take one pancake and layer it with a portion of the cooked sausage, a slice of American cheese, and a cooked egg. Top with another pancake to create a sandwich.
Notes
- For gluten-free, use almond flour.
- For dairy-free, substitute almond milk and coconut oil.
- For a lighter option, replace sausage with turkey sausage or a plant-based alternative.
