Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups Pancake Mix (Complete mix that just requires water)
- 1 cup Water
- 1/4 cup Maple Syrup (Can substitute with honey or agave nectar)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Pepper
- 1 lb Breakfast Sausage (Can use turkey or plant-based sausage)
- 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese (Try mozzarella or dairy-free for variety)
- 4 large Eggs (Scrambled before adding to the mixture)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a muffin tin with paper cups.
- Combine the pancake mix, water, and maple syrup in a large mixing bowl. Stir until just combined—don’t overmix!
- Season the batter with salt and pepper.
- Cook the breakfast sausage in a separate skillet until browned and crumbled. Drain excess grease and let cool slightly.
- Fold the cooked sausage and shredded cheese into the pancake batter.
- Scramble the eggs in a medium bowl and incorporate them into the mixture with care.
- Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with the batter using a scoop.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool for a few minutes before removing from the muffin tin.
Notes
Serve warm with an extra drizzle of maple syrup or alongside a dollop of yogurt. Pair with fresh fruit and coffee for a complete meal.
