Description

Sweet and savory homemade breakfast sandwiches made with maple-flavored pancake buns, sausage patties, eggs, and melty cheese—perfect for a satisfying grab-and-go morning meal.


Ingredients

  • Pancake mix (or homemade pancake batter)
  • Maple syrup (for batter and optional brushing)
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 breakfast sausage patties (pork, turkey, chicken, or plant-based)
  • 4 slices American cheese (or cheddar, Swiss, pepper jack)
  • Butter or oil for cooking
  • Optional: salt and pepper, pancake rings or mason jar lids for shaping

Instructions

  1. Prepare pancake batter according to package or recipe, stirring in a splash of maple syrup.
  2. Lightly grease pancake rings or mason jar lids and heat over medium. Pour batter to form sandwich-sized pancakes and cook 2–3 minutes each side until golden.
  3. Meanwhile, brown sausage patties 4–5 minutes per side until cooked through. Cook eggs (fried, scrambled, or in rings) and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Assemble: pancake, sausage, egg, cheese, and top with another pancake. Brush with maple syrup if desired.
  5. Serve warm or wrap individually and freeze for easy reheating.

Notes

  • Replace sausage with bacon, Canadian bacon, or plant-based patties.
  • Use cheddar, pepper jack, Swiss, or American cheese.
  • Brush on syrup between layers for extra sweetness.
  • Freeze sandwiches and reheat in microwave (1–2 min) or toaster oven (350°F for 10–12 min).
