Sausage Dipped Pancakes Brunch (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
8 breakfast sausage patties
02 -
180 g all-purpose flour
03 -
8 g baking powder
04 -
1.25 g salt
05 -
25 g granulated sugar
06 -
5 ml vanilla extract
07 -
240 ml whole milk, at room temperature
08 -
1 large egg
09 -
30 g unsalted butter, melted
10 -
Maple syrup, for serving
# Instructions:
01 -
In a large skillet, cook the breakfast sausage patties over medium-high heat until fully cooked and golden brown. Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat.
02 -
Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar into a large mixing bowl.
03 -
In a separate bowl, whisk vigorously to combine the whole milk, vanilla extract, large egg, melted unsalted butter, and 15 ml (1 tablespoon) of maple syrup until the mixture is smooth.
04 -
Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Gently whisk until just combined; a few small lumps are acceptable, but avoid overmixing to ensure tender pancakes.
05 -
Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the cooking surface with butter or cooking spray.
06 -
Fully submerge each cooked sausage patty into the prepared pancake batter, ensuring it is completely coated.
07 -
Carefully place the batter-coated sausage patties onto the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until bubbles begin to form on the surface of the pancake. Flip and cook until both sides are golden brown and the pancake is cooked through.
08 -
Remove the sausage-dipped pancakes from the skillet and serve immediately, accompanied by additional butter and maple syrup.
# Notes:
01 -
To achieve exceptionally fluffy pancakes, ensure dry ingredients are thoroughly sifted and allow the batter to rest for 5 minutes prior to cooking.
02 -
Avoid overcrowding the cooking surface to facilitate even browning and proper cooking.
03 -
For a lighter variation, consider using turkey or chicken sausage patties.
04 -
To prepare a dairy-free version, substitute whole milk with almond milk and unsalted butter with coconut oil.
05 -
Enhance the flavor profile by adding a pinch of ground cinnamon to the pancake batter for a warm, comforting note.
