SAUSAGE PANCAKE BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350° and have ready both a rimmed sheet pan lined with nonstick aluminum foil and a well-greased, 24-cup mini muffin tin.
• Place sausage links on a rimmed sheet pan and rub with oil. Bake for 7 minutes. Pull out the pan, give a gentle shake to move the sausages a bit, and return to the oven for an additional 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
• Increase the oven temperature to 400°.
• While the sausages are cooling, make the pancake batter, in a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until foamy. Whisk in the milk and butter. Add the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Do not over-stir. Set aside.
• Fill mini muffin tins about 2/3's of the way full. Cut the breakfast sausage links into thirds, and insert a piece in the center of each muffin cavity. You will have leftover sausage.
• Bake at 400° for 12-14 minutes, or until puffed and golden.
• Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Serve with maple syrup and enjoy.
