Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk

1 large egg

2 tablespoons melted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled (use breakfast sausage or your favorite type)

Maple syrup, for dipping

Cooking spray or oil for greasing the pan

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

      Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and blend until just combined. It's okay if there are a few lumps; over-mixing can lead to tough pancakes.

        Add Sausage: Gently fold in the crumbled cooked sausage into the batter, ensuring it's evenly distributed.

          Scoop the Batter: Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each bite as they will spread slightly during cooking.

            Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the pancake bites are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

              Cool and Serve: Once baked, allow the bites to cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with maple syrup for dipping.

                Enjoy: These delightful bites make for a fantastic breakfast or snack option that both kids and adults will love!
