Ultimate Breakfast Lasagna: Pancake Sausage Casserole
An indulgent twist on breakfast, this layered dish combines pancakes and sausage into one hearty meal, perfect for family gatherings or cozy weekends.
Ingredients
Pancake Mixture
- 2 cups pancake mix
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk (or almond milk)
- 1/2 cup maple syrup for drizzling
Filling
- 1 lb breakfast sausage links cooked and sliced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or mozzarella) for melting
- Non-stick baking spray for greasing the baking dish
Instructions
Preparation
- Cook the sausage links over medium heat until golden brown. Slice into bite-sized pieces once cooled.
- In a mixing bowl, combine pancake mix, milk, and eggs until smooth. The batter should be thick yet pourable.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish and pour half of the pancake batter into it.
- Layer half the sausage and half the cheese on top.
- Repeat with another layer of pancake batter, remaining sausage, and cheese. Pour any leftover batter on top.
Baking
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown on top and fragrant.
Serving
- Serve warm, drizzled with maple syrup and a side of fresh fruit if desired.
Notes
For a fluffier texture, let the pancake batter rest for a few minutes before pouring it into the baking dish. Swap out the cheese for your favorite type or add fruits like blueberries or bananas for extra flavor.
