Have you ever ever thought to make a sandwich out of pancakes? Flip a breakfast plate of pancakes, sausage, and eggs into one tasty, moveable pancake breakfast sandwich! This visitor submit was written by my foodie buddy Elizabeth of Drift Cville!

Nothing screams breakfast to me fairly like having pancakes. 

The scent alone is sufficient to transport me again to childhood when my mother would make them on Saturday mornings. They’re the last word breakfast meals for the household as a result of they’re straightforward to make and there are a ton of variations you’ll be able to attempt.

You’ll be able to go along with an oatmeal pancake (the mashed bananas add an awesome taste), a thick and fluffy sheet pan pancake (this works nicely for those who want lots of pancakes), pancake tacos, or use the cheese Danish pancake recipe for some added protein.

My private favourite approach to take pleasure in pancakes is to make a breakfast sandwich just like a McGriddle. Candy pancakes with maple sweet, savory sausage and egg, and easy to assemble, that is the right choice for a weekend breakfast. 

Make it from scratch or take brief cuts

This recipe has a couple of superior steps: making the maple sweet and sausage patties from scratch. You’ll be able to completely take a brief reduce and miss the maple (drizzle just a little inside like a condiment if you need the flavour) and use pre-formed sausage patties! 

Higher but, make your pancakes upfront, and you’ll have this sandwich able to go in minutes on a weekday morning! 

Right here is my recipe for a scrumptious candy and savory pancake breakfast sandwich.

Pancake Breakfast Sandwich Recipe

Substances

• 1/3 cup maple syrup, grade A
• 1.25 cups pancake combine (I used Kodiak, sufficient to make about 8 pancakes) 
• 1.25 cups water for pancake combine
• 4 giant eggs
• 1 Tbsp water
• Salt and pepper
• 4 sausage patties, pre-formed or pre-made
• 4 slices cheddar cheese or equal shredded cheese
• Cooking spray, butter, or oil for cooking

Directions

Step One: Make The Maple Sweet

Step one is non-compulsory for if you wish to give your breakfast sandwich just a little little bit of a McGriddle really feel. This can be a enjoyable means so as to add just a little sweetness and it’s easy to do – although a bit messy!

First, you’ll line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set that apart. Subsequent, you’ll warmth the maple syrup in a small pan over medium warmth.

The syrup will begin to bubble and foam earlier than decreasing (this takes round 4-6 minutes, relying in your stovetop). I like to recommend watching this rigorously, as it will possibly burn shortly and then you definitely’ll have a really bitter tasting sweet in your fingers (sure, I’ve achieved this, and sure, it was disgusting).

As soon as it’s decreased, instantly pour the syrup onto the parchment paper, and use a spatula to unfold it into a skinny layer. Enable this to chill for about 10 minutes earlier than breaking the sweet into tiny items (you’ll later add this to the pancake batter).

Step Two: Make the Pancakes

In a small mixing bowl, mix the pancake combine with water. (When you’re utilizing a mixture apart from Kodiak truffles, add any oils or eggs the combination requires.)

You’ll need to whisk the components collectively till it’s principally easy. In case you are utilizing maple sweet, I combine it into the batter.

As soon as mixed, make small pancakes utilizing a greased pan over medium warmth. I like to recommend utilizing a measuring cup for every pancake to make sure they’re all the identical measurement. When you don’t really feel snug eyeballing the batter, be at liberty to make use of a hoop mould or a mason jar lid when you have one accessible – you’ll simply need to be certain that no matter you utilize gained’t soften on the heated pan.

Cook dinner the pancake till golden brown (round 4 minutes) after which flip over to complete the opposite facet (round 2 minutes). As soon as cooked, place the pancake to the facet on a dish and repeat with the remaining batter till you have got eight pancakes.

TIP: Preheat the oven to 250 and place the pancakes on a lined baking sheet to maintain within the oven so that they’ll keep good and heat.

Step Three: Cook dinner the Sausage

When you’re utilizing pre-made patties, warmth them up right here. If cooking from floor, type your patties and wipe out the pan or skillet you used to make the pancakes, add just a little extra butter or oil and add the sausage. Cook dinner for about 3-4 minutes or till it reaches the interior temperature of 145°F. As soon as your sausage is cooked, place it on the plate or baking sheet with the pancakes.

Step 4: Make the Eggs

Now it’s time for the eggs! In a small bowl, whisk collectively the remaining 4 eggs together with water, salt and pepper.

Wipe out the pan or skillet once more (I’m all about saving on the variety of dishes for cleansing up!) and re-grease. Warmth the pan to medium and add the eggs. 

If you wish to do a folded egg, you’ll warmth the egg till it units on the underside and across the edges, which is able to take about 2 minutes.

Then switch the pan into the oven to prepare dinner till set on prime, which ought to take one other 3-4 minutes (be certain that the pan is oven protected if you’re doing it this fashion!).

You’ll then take away the pan and fold the eggs like an omelet earlier than chopping into sections.

For a range prime choice, simply make a conventional omelet on the range and add within the cheese so it melts in. It’s also possible to add every other components you suppose would go nicely. In any case, savory and candy all the time work nicely collectively, so throwing in some jalapenos or scallions can add a pleasant variation and reduce via the sugar of the syrup sweet and the pancakes.

Minimize your egg fold or omelet into 4 sections. 

Step 5: Assemble your sandwich.

Now that you’ve got the whole lot cooked, it’s time to assemble the sandwich!

Place a sausage patty on prime of a pancake and add the egg and cheese earlier than topping with one other pancake. You’ll be able to then proceed to warmth these within the oven till good and heat or you should utilize the pan to do the identical. Repeat with the remaining components to finish 4 sandwiches whole.

Step Six: Benefit from the Last Product!

Now you’ll be able to take pleasure in your pancake breakfast sandwich! This supplies the perfect savory and candy punch to start out your day.
