Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup milk
- 2 large eggs (1 for batter, 1 for filling)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (plus more for serving)
- 2 sausage patties
- 2 slices American cheese
- Additional butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, 1 egg, maple syrup, and melted butter. Combine wet and dry ingredients into pancake batter.
- Lightly grease the skillet and cook pancake rounds using ring molds if available. Cook until bubbles form, flip, and cook the other side. Set aside.
- In the same skillet, cook sausage patties until browned and cooked through. Set aside.
- Crack the second egg into the skillet and cook into a round shape to match the pancakes.
- Assemble the sandwich: pancake, sausage patty, egg, cheese, and top with the second pancake. Cover briefly to melt the cheese.
- Serve warm with maple syrup on the side.
Notes
- Use real maple syrup for authentic flavor.
- To freeze, wrap sandwiches in foil and reheat in the oven.
- Make mini versions using silver dollar pancakes.
