Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage, cooked and cooled
  • 2 cups protein pancake mix (such as Kodiak Cakes)
  • 1.5 cups water
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (sharp cheddar preferred)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or softened butter.
  • Combine the pancake mix and water in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  • Add the completely cooled, cooked sausage to the batter. Stir gently.
  • Fold in the shredded cheddar and the sugar-free maple syrup. Mix until just combined.
  • Spoon the batter into each muffin cup, filling about three-quarters full.

Baking

  • Bake for 18–23 minutes. Watch for golden edges and a clean toothpick in the center.
  • Let the bites cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Remove and finish cooling on a rack.

These bites can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. They can be frozen individually for up to three months. Reheat in the microwave for about 30 seconds to a minute or bake for 10-15 minutes at 350°F.
