Sausage Apple Pancakes
The perfect mix of sweet apples and savory sausage brought together by a hint of cinnamon. A wonderfully easy breakfast recipe for the Fall and holiday seasons!
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb. pork breakfast sausage links
- 1 c. all purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 3/4 c. whole milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp. mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp. honey
- 1 apple, peeled, cored, and grated
- Butter and maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- Cook sausage according to package directions. Cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside until ready to use.
- In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- In a small bowl, beat together milk, egg, mayonnaise, and honey until combined. Add wet ingredients to dry and gently mix together. Add sausage and apples and gently stir.
- Heat a large pan or griddle on medium heat. Add 1/4 to 1/3 cup of batter to pan/griddle and cook until bubbles start to form on the sides (about 1 to 2 minutes) before flipping. Cook until bottom is lightly golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter until done.
- Serve immediately with butter and maple syrup.
Notes
- The original recipe listed either 1 tbsp. butter or mayonnaise for the pancake mix. Somehow I managed to use all of our butter over the weekend, so I had to use mayo. But as long as my hubby never finds out, I'll be doing this from now on!
