Delicious Pancake Sausage Casserole Recipe for Breakfast Bliss
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef sausage (or pork sausage, turkey sausage, or plant-based sausage)
- 2 cups pancake mix (or whole wheat or gluten-free pancake mix)
- 4 large eggs (or egg substitute like flaxseed meal or applesauce)
- 2 cups milk (whole, skim, or unsweetened dairy-free alternative)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup (or honey, agave syrup, or sugar-free syrup)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella, or nutritional yeast for a dairy-free option)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef sausage until it’s browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain any excess fat and set it aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the pancake mix, eggs, and milk. Whisk until smooth. If you like your pancakes sweet, feel free to add a tablespoon of maple syrup to the batter.
- In a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spread the cooked sausage evenly across the bottom. Pour the pancake batter over the sausage. If you’re adding cheese, sprinkle it on top of the batter.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pancake layer is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, let the casserole cool for a few minutes. Drizzle with additional maple syrup if desired, then slice and serve warm.
