Do NOT Read If You Are On A Health Kick!!!

First off, I am just warning you now that if you are a health nut and do not want to be tempted from your healthy ways. STOP NOW! Ok so you have been warned.

Ryan was talking to me the other day about how he had this craving of what I like to call a little piece of heaven on earth! What is this, you may ask? Well an egg, cheese, and sausage slapped between two yummy pieces of pancake... You may have guessed by now that I am talking about the McGriddles at *smackdonalds* (my granddaddy used to call it that).

Normal people would just go get one, but for reasons personally in our family we do not eat at McDonald's anymore. So we decided to make one ourselves. I am just going to say that this was WAY better and so easy to make. We will be making them... sometimes. They are not the healthiest meal, but its healthier homemade without all the preservatives and cheaper. WIN WIN!!!!

I thought I would share with you how we made ours. I am sure other people may have their own ways of making it, but if you would like to try it, Please do and don't blame me if you fall in love with it too. :)

Each sandwich will need:
a sausage patty (we used maple)
egg
cheese
two pancakes
and REAL maple syrup

I made my pancake batter up first. I make it from scratch using this recipe. It makes some GREAT pancakes, but if you have your own recipe or want to use the mix, I am sure it will be close to as good.

Preheat your griddle to 350 degrees. Then you make your sausage patties. They take the longest to cook. The key is to try to have every part done at the same time and hot. Once the sausage patties were done. We pushed them to the side of griddle to keep them warm.

I then poured two pancakes using a 1/4 cup to measure. They turned out to be the perfect size. Also, started the egg... in the sausage grease. Salt and pepper the egg to your liking. Before you flip your pancake to cook on the other side drizzle maple syrup on top of the batter so that when you flip the pancake it cooks into it. Flip the egg and pancakes. Cook thoroughly.

Next assemble your awesomeness!
