Ingredients

To make these Pancake Sausage Bites, gather the following ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon sugar

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon baking powder

1 large egg

1 cup buttermilk

26 sausage patties (e.g., Jimmy Dean’s Heat ‘N Serve)

Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Cook the Sausage:
    Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Cook the sausage patties until browned and fully cooked through. Drain the excess grease and set the patties aside to cool slightly.
  2. Make the Pancake Batter:
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and baking powder. In another bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: egg and buttermilk. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until the batter just comes together. Avoid overmixing.
  3. Fry the Pancake Sausage Bites:
    Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, ensuring enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Dip each sausage patty into the pancake batter, making sure it is fully coated. Fry the battered sausage patties in the hot oil for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.
  4. Serve:
    Serve the pancake sausage bites hot with powdered sugar, warm maple syrup, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Dipping Sauces: These pancake sausage bites pair well with maple syrup, spicy maple syrup, or even creamy ranch dressing for a fun twist.
  • Leftovers: Store leftover pancake sausage bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or skillet to restore their crispness.
  • Customize Fillings: You can add herbs, cheese, or a dash of cinnamon to the pancake batter for extra flavor.
