Easy Pancake Sausage Casserole

Pancake Sausage Casserole
Print Recipe

A pancake sausage casserole is a baked breakfast dish that layers cooked sausage and pancake batter into a single dish, creating a mix of sweet and savory flavors. It’s soft, fluffy, and full of golden-brown goodness, often topped with syrup or butter before serving. Think of it as your favorite breakfast platter baked into a hearty casserole — with fewer dishes to clean.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 pound breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled

  • 2 cups pancake mix

  • 1 ½ cups milk

  • 2 large eggs

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

  • Non-stick spray or butter for greasing

  • Maple syrup or powdered sugar for serving

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2: Cook the sausage

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess grease and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3: Prepare the pancake batter

In a large bowl, whisk together pancake mix, milk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth. The batter should be slightly thicker than standard pancake batter.

Step 4: Combine and layer

Pour half of the pancake batter into the prepared baking dish. Evenly spread the cooked sausage on top, then pour the remaining batter over it. Use a spatula to smooth out the surface.

Step 5: Bake the casserole

Bake for 30–35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 6: Rest and serve

Allow the casserole to cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar for extra sweetness.
