Description
A quick and comforting breakfast recipe that combines pancakes, scrambled eggs, turkey bacon, and cheese for a delightful morning meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb. ground breakfast sausage (or 4 sausage patties)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 6 eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 4 tbsp. softened butter
- 1 ¼ cups flour
- ⅔ cup milk
- 2 7/8 tbsp. melted butter
- 1 egg
- 1 ½ tsp. baking powder
- 2 tbsp. maple syrup
- ½ tsp. salt
- 6 slices of turkey bacon
- 4 slices American cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the sausage patties by massaging the ground sausage and forming it into 4 patties. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.
- In a bowl, whisk together 6 eggs and 1 cup of whole milk until well combined.
- Cook omelets using 1/4 of the egg mixture at a time, folding them gently after cooking for a tender finish.
- Make pancake batter: In one bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, mix in the milk, 1 egg, melted butter, and maple syrup until smooth.
- In a non-stick pan, pour 2-3 tablespoons of the pancake batter at a time, cooking until bubbles form on top. Flip them and cook for an additional minute until golden.
- Crisp the turkey bacon in a pan or microwave until nice and crispy.
- Assemble the McGriddles: Layer a pancake with cheese, the sausage patty, omelet, and crispy turkey bacon, then top off with another pancake. Repeat for all servings.
