Pancake Breakfast Sandwich  • Kath Eats

Have you ever thought to make a sandwich out of pancakes? Turn a breakfast plate of pancakes, sausage, and eggs into one tasty, moveable pancake breakfast sandwich! This visitor publish was written by my foodie good friend 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 are the last word breakfast meals for the household as a result of they’re simple to make and there are a ton of variations you possibly can strive.

You can go together with an oatmeal pancake (the mashed bananas add an amazing taste), a thick and fluffy sheet pan pancake (this works effectively in case you want loads of pancakes), pancake tacos, or use the cheese Danish pancake recipe for some added protein.

My private favourite method to get pleasure from pancakes is to make a breakfast sandwich much like a McGriddle. Sweet pancakes with maple sweet, savory sausage and egg, and easy to assemble, that is the right possibility for a weekend breakfast. 

Make it from scratch or take quick cuts

This recipe has a couple of superior steps: making the maple sweet and sausage patties from scratch. You can completely take a brief minimize and omit the maple (drizzle a bit of inside like a condiment if you’d like the flavour) and use pre-formed sausage patties! 

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

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

Pancake Breakfast Sandwich Recipe

Ingredients

• 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

Instructions

Step One: Make The Maple Candy

The first step is non-obligatory for if you wish to give your breakfast sandwich a bit of little bit of a McGriddle really feel. This is a enjoyable approach so as to add a bit of 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. Next, 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 could possibly burn shortly and then you definately’ll have a really bitter tasting sweet in your arms (sure, I’ve achieved this, and sure, it was disgusting).

Once it’s decreased, instantly pour the syrup onto the parchment paper, and use a spatula to unfold it into a skinny layer. Allow 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. (If you’re utilizing a mixture aside from Kodiak truffles, add any oils or eggs the combination requires.)

You’ll wish to whisk the substances collectively till it’s principally easy. If you might be utilizing maple sweet, I combine it into the batter.

Once 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. If you don’t really feel comfy eyeballing the batter, be happy to make use of a hoop mould or a mason jar lid you probably have one accessible – you’ll simply wish to make certain no matter you utilize received’t soften on the heated pan.

Cook the pancake till golden brown (round 4 minutes) after which flip over to complete the opposite aspect (round 2 minutes). Once cooked, place the pancake to the aspect on a dish and repeat with the remaining batter till you’ve eight pancakes.

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

Step Three: Cook the Sausage

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

Step Four: 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. Heat 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 cook dinner till set on prime, which ought to take one other 3-4 minutes (make certain the pan is oven protected in case you are doing it this manner!).

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

For a range prime possibility, simply make a conventional omelet on the range and add within the cheese so it melts in. You may add another substances you assume would go effectively. After all, savory and candy at all times work effectively collectively, so throwing in some jalapenos or scallions can add a pleasant variation and minimize via the sugar of the syrup sweet and the pancakes.

Cut your egg fold or omelet into 4 sections. 

Step Five: Assemble your sandwich.

Now that you’ve got every little thing 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 can 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 substances to finish 4 sandwiches whole.

Step Six: Enjoy the Final Product!

Now you possibly can get pleasure from your pancake breakfast sandwich! This gives the very best savory and candy punch to start out your day.
