Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups Hungry Jack Pancake Mix
Wet Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
Other Ingredients
- 1 lb breakfast sausage
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Brown the Sausage: In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the breakfast sausage until fully browned. Drain the excess grease thoroughly and set the sausage aside.
- Prepare the Pancake Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of Hungry Jack Pancake Mix with 1 1/2 cups of water according to the package instructions to form your pancake batter.
- Mix Ingredients: Stir the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and 1/4 cup maple syrup into the pancake batter, ensuring all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Fill the Mini Muffin Pan: Grease a mini muffin pan thoroughly. Spoon the batter mixture into the pan, filling each cup about three-quarters full to allow room for rising.
- Bake the Bites: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Bake the mini pancake muffins for 12 to 15 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve the McGriddle Bites with extra maple syrup for dipping and enjoy a delicious breakfast bite. For convenient breakfasts, freeze leftovers and reheat as needed.
Notes
- Drain sausage grease well to avoid excess oiliness in the bites.
- Use a well-greased or non-stick mini muffin pan to prevent sticking.
- These can be stored in the freezer for up to 1 month and reheated in the microwave or oven.
- Adjust maple syrup in the batter or as a dip to suit your sweetness preference.
