Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk

1 large egg

2 tablespoons melted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled or chopped

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Maple syrup, for serving

Instructions

Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until fully incorporated.

Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not over-mix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.

Add Sausage and Cheese: Carefully fold in the cooked sausage and shredded cheddar cheese (if using).

Preheat the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or a little butter.

Cook the Bites: Pour batter in tablespoonfuls onto the skillet, making sure to leave space between each one. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 1-2 minutes.

Flip: Carefully flip the pancake bites and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

Serve: Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter. Serve with warm maple syrup for dipping.
