Instructions
- Instructions:
- Prepare the Pancake Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together your pancake mix (or homemade batter) with the milk, egg, and a splash of vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and lump-free. For a little extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter.
- Cook the Sausages:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage links and cook until golden brown and crispy on the outside (about 5-7 minutes), turning occasionally for even cooking. Once cooked through, remove from the pan and set aside.
- Dip the Sausages:
- Pour your pancake batter into a shallow dish, large enough to dip the sausages. Take each sausage link and carefully dip it into the batter, making sure it’s fully coated. For an extra crispy exterior, lightly tap off any excess batter.
- Fry the Bites:
- Return your skillet to the heat, adding a little butter or oil to coat the bottom. Once the pan is hot, gently place the coated sausages in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn a golden brown and the batter is crispy.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Once cooked, transfer the pancake sausage bites onto a paper towel to drain any excess oil. Serve with warm maple syrup for dipping, or drizzle directly over the bites for that sweet and savory finish.
