Description

These breakfast pigs in a blanket wrap fluffy pancakes around savory sausage links—served with maple syrup for the ultimate sweet and savory morning treat.


Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

1 cup buttermilk

1 large egg

2 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for cooking)

12 breakfast sausage links, cooked

Maple syrup, for serving


Instructions

Make pancake batter: In one bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix buttermilk, egg, and melted butter. Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just combined—don’t overmix.

Cook pancakes: Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush with butter. Pour 3-inch rounds of batter onto the skillet and cook 1–2 minutes per side until golden and fluffy. Set aside and repeat.

Assemble: Wrap each pancake around a cooked sausage link. Use toothpicks to secure, if needed.

Serve: Serve warm with maple syrup on the side for dipping.

 

Notes

Substitutions: Use veggie or turkey sausage if preferred.

Flavor boost: Add cinnamon or shredded cheddar to the batter.

Complete the meal: Serve with fruit, eggs, or hash browns.
