Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 lb breakfast sausage
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • Maple syrup, for serving optional

Equipment

  • 1 18x13-inch half-sheet pan
  • 1 Large Skillet
  • 2 Mixing bowls

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Generously grease an 18x13-inch half-sheet pan. Cook the breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat until browned. Drain excess grease.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared sheet pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle the cooked sausage and shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let cool slightly before slicing into squares. Serve warm with maple syrup, if desired.

Notes

Do Not Overmix: A lumpy batter makes for the fluffiest pancakes.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
