Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tbsp melted butter (plus more for cooking)
8 cooked beef breakfast sausages (or beef sausage links), fully cooked and warm
Maple syrup, for serving
Skewers or popsicle sticks
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, mix buttermilk, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter will be slightly thick. Don’t overmix.
- Insert a skewer or popsicle stick into each cooked beef sausage.
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
- Dip each sausage into the pancake batter, turning to coat evenly. Let excess drip off.
- Place on the hot skillet and cook 2–3 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip carefully.
- Serve warm with maple syrup for dipping or drizzling. Enjoy!
Notes
-
Make sure sausages are fully cooked before dipping.
-
Use thick batter for better coating.
-
Freeze in a single layer first before transferring to a container.
-
Reheat straight from the freezer—no need to thaw.
-
Substitute with turkey or veggie sausage for a lighter option.
