A hearty and comforting casserole that combines savory sausage with fluffy pancakes, perfect for brunch or meal prep.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb breakfast sausage (links or crumbled)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish with butter or cooking spray.
  3. Cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess grease.
  4. Spread sausage evenly across the bottom of the casserole dish.
  5. Pour prepared pancake batter over the sausage layer.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, maple syrup, salt, and pepper.
  7. Pour egg mixture on top of the pancake layer.

Notes

Use a toothpick to check for doneness; if it comes out clean, it’s ready! Customize with add-ins like bacon, vegetables, or different cheeses.
