Breakfast Sausage Pancake Balls | Kid-Friendly Morning Treat
directions
- Mix together gently, in a large bowl, the cubed pancakes, ground cinnamon, 2 whisked eggs and 1/3 cup maple syrup until well blended.
- Working with one sausage patty at a time, place 1 generous teaspoon pancake mixture on top of each one and using your hands mix together to form a meat ball, keeping some of the pancake pieces whole. Each sausage patty makes one approximately 2 inch meatball.
- Place meatballs on a foil lined rimmed baking sheet as you work. When you have made all 30 meatballs, cover loosely and pop into the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Bake meatballs until cooked throughout, about 20 to 25 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

to serve
You can always make a half batch of these meatballs, but they are great for a large gathering. Simply put pancake sausage balls in a large shallow bowl along with a spoon and let guests serve themselves. Place a small pitcher of syrup and a bowl of fresh fruit alongside. These sausage-pancake balls are also a wonderful grab-and-go breakfast. Just put 2 or 3 in a container on short skewers, along with fresh fruit and a small container of maple syrup. Kids love these!
