Why This Loaded Pancake Recipe Works

• Loaded savoury pancakes
• Crispy pancakes
• Easy to Make
• Protein Pancake
• Delicious

Ingredients Needed

• Pancake Mix – You can use whatever pancake mix you enjoy using. You will need water to go along with the mix. I used Krusteaz Complete mix for this recipe.
• Breakfast Sausage – You will cook up the sausage as directed and then drain off the excess grease. This is a step you should not skip.
• Eggs – Mix up your favorite scrambled eggs, and this will be mixed into the pancakes for an excellent protein packed ingredient.
• Cheddar Cheese – So I used cheddar cheese, but you can easily swap with other varieties of cheese if you want.
• Syrup – So I like to drizzle syrup on top for a sweet take to the savory. But another option is a country style gravy if you would prefer.

The complete list of ingredients, quantities, and instructions can be found in the printable recipe card below.

How to Make Loaded Pancakes

1. Step One: Start by mixing up your pancake mix batter in a large bowl. Mix until the wet ingredients are smooth and the clumps are removed. (Photo 1)
2. Step Two: Then, you will stir in the crumbled sausage, scrambled eggs, and shredded cheese. Mix to combine. (Photos 2 & 3)
3. Step Three: Heat your griddle and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Then, pour 1/2 cup of the pancake batter into the skillet.
4. Step Four: Once the batter has cooked for about 2 minutes and you see bubbles form and begin to pop, you will flip. (Photo 4)
5. Step Five: Cook another 2 minutes or so, or until the pancake mixture is fully cooked. (Photo 5)

Repeat until you have cooked up all the pancakes, and serve with country gravy or a drizzle of syrup. Enjoy!
