Breakfast just got a whole lot more interesting with this Pancake Sausage Casserole. It’s a delightful blend of savory sausage and sweet pancake, creating a dish that’s sure to be a hit at any breakfast table.
Ingredients:
- 1 roll of your favorite sausage
- 2.5 cups of pancake mix
- Milk (quantity as needed)
- 1 cup of Mrs. Butterworth’s syrup
Cooking Instructions:
- Brown the Sausage: Start by browning the sausage in a pan until it’s fully cooked. This step infuses the sausage with a rich, caramelized flavor, which is key to the dish.
- Prepare the Pancake Batter: In a separate bowl, mix the pancake mix with milk. The trick here is to eyeball the amount of milk until you achieve the batter consistency you prefer. Whether you like your pancakes fluffy or thin, adjust the milk accordingly.
- Add the Syrup: Stir in a cup of Mrs. Butterworth’s syrup into the batter. This adds a delightful sweetness to the casserole, marrying well with the savory notes of the sausage.
- Assemble the Casserole: Pour the pancake batter into a baking dish. Then, evenly spread the browned sausage on top. The sausage will partially sink into the batter, creating a perfect layer of meat within the sweet pancake.
- Bake to Perfection: Bake your casserole in a preheated oven at 350°F. Keep an eye on it and remove it once it turns a lovely golden brown. This usually takes about the same time as baking a large pancake.
This Pancake Sausage Casserole offers a unique twist on classic breakfast flavors. It’s a delightful balance of savory and sweet, making it an ideal dish for a family breakfast, a brunch gathering, or even as a comforting breakfast-for-dinner option. Serve it warm, and watch as it becomes the star of your breakfast spread!
