Most Simple Pancake Sausage Bites

By now, you’ve probably heard about and tried out the new Five Guys Cheeseburger Bites. You may have even gotten the idea to make your own and have been trying to figure out a great recipe. But, if you’re like me, you’re scratching your head and wondering just what the heck a Cheeseburger Bite is.

Over the weekend, my wife and I made breakfast for the kids, and then when they were gone I made some for myself. I had some frozen sausage and I wanted to do something a little different with it. I had a bag of pancake mix and I thought I’d make some sausage balls. I think I’m going to start calling them “pancake sausage balls”.

What could be more simple than a pancake, right? Well, so is a pancake sausage but there are many differences. Here’s a list of the differences between a pancake and a sausage.

We think these are the best make-ahead breakfast muffins we’ve ever had! The simplest pancake sausage bites need just four ingredients and are ideal for hectic weekday mornings. Refrigerate until ready to serve, or freeze and reheat whenever hunger strikes! Just the way I like it: simple and wonderful!

In our home, we are huge breakfast eaters, and nothing makes me happier than a simple early meal. These are a little simpler to make than our Freezer Burritos (recipe here), but they’re still satisfying. If you want to keep them frozen, heat them up in the microwave if they’ve been in the fridge for a few days. On hectic mornings, I put them in the microwave for a minute and a half, and the kids eat them in the vehicle – they’re great!

Is it okay if I use any pancake mix?

Absolutely! We’ve tested a variety of brands and they’ve all turned up excellent. You should be fine to go as long as you maintain the ratios the same. Be careful that some are sweeter than others, which may have a positive or negative impact on the flavors. Please test your preferred brand and let me know what you think.

What’s the best way to reheat these?

These will remain fresh in the refrigerator for 72 hours if kept in the refrigerator. If you want to freeze them right away, they will keep for another three months!

Reheat in the refrigerator:

Wrap a wet paper towel around the muffin and microwave for 30-45 seconds. You may wish to split the muffin in half before cooking it to ensure that the middle is toasted as well. When you take it out of the microwave, it will be hot, so be cautious!

Reheat from the freezer:

Wrap a wet paper towel around the frozen muffin. Microwave for 90 seconds on a plate in the middle of the microwave. Cut the muffin in half gently after 90 seconds and cook for another 20 seconds. (Because heating times varies across manufacturers of microwaves, adapt your recipe to your particular microwave.)

4 eggs, whisked together in a large mixing dish Make sure you’ve broken up and mixed all of the yolks. 1 cup cheese shredded and 1 cup pancakes are added next. Add the cooked ground sausage last. Completely combine the ingredients.
