Homemade McGriddles breakfast sandwich
On December 16, 2023 by userHere’s a homemade McGriddles breakfast sandwich recipe that you can try. The McGriddles from McDonald’s are known for their sweet and savory combination with maple syrup flavor in the pancake buns. This recipe replicates that concept at home.
Ingredients:
For the Pancake Buns:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
For the Breakfast Sandwich:
- 4 breakfast sausage patties (pre-cooked or cook according to package instructions)
- 4 slices American cheese or cheese of your choice
- 4 large eggs, cooked to your liking (fried or scrambled)
- Butter for cooking eggs
Instructions:
For the Pancake Buns:
- Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and maple syrup.
- Combine: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
- Cook Pancakes:
- Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Pour 1/4 cup portions of batter onto the griddle to form small pancakes.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on both sides.
- Assemble McGriddles:
- Once the pancakes are cooked, allow them to cool slightly.
- Place a slice of cheese on half of the pancakes and top with a second pancake to create a sandwich.
For the Breakfast Sandwich:
- Cook Eggs:
- In the same skillet, melt a bit of butter over medium heat.
- Cook the eggs to your liking—either fried or scrambled.
- Cook Sausage Patties:
- Cook the sausage patties according to the package instructions, or if using pre-cooked, heat them through.
- Assemble McGriddles:
- Place a cooked egg on top of the cheese inside each pancake sandwich.
- Add a cooked sausage patty on top of the egg.
- Serve:
- Serve your homemade McGriddles warm, optionally drizzling a bit of maple syrup on top for that extra sweetness.
