Method
- 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a mini muffin tin well, including the top surface so the muffins don't stick as they puff.
- 2
Prepare the pancake batter according to the box (or your scratch recipe), mixing just until smooth — a few small lumps are fine.
- 3
Cook the breakfast sausage links according to their package directions until fully cooked and browned, then let cool slightly and chop into small, muffin-cup-sized pieces.
- 4
Fill each mini muffin cup about halfway with pancake batter, then press one piece of chopped sausage down into the center of each so it's mostly submerged.
- 5
Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the muffins are puffed, golden on top, and a toothpick inserted into the pancake portion comes out clean.
- 6
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 2–3 minutes, then run a thin knife around the edges and pop them out onto a plate.
- 7
Serve warm with a small cup of maple syrup for dipping.
