Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 4 large Eggs
- 4 oz Cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Sugar-free maple syrup
- 8 oz Ground sausage
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
Instructions
Begin by making the low carb pancake buns. In a blender, combine almond flour, 2 eggs, cream cheese, baking powder, vanilla extract, and sugar-free maple syrup. Blend until the batter is smooth and well incorporated.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a little butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake bun, similar to how you'd make regular pancakes.
Cook the buns for about 2-3 minutes on one side, until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining batter to make a total of 8 pancakes.
While the buns are cooking, prepare the sausage patties. Form the ground sausage into four equal patties. Season each patty with salt and pepper on both sides.
In another skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage patties for about 4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and browned.
In the same pan used for the sausage, remove excess grease and fry the remaining 2 eggs (to be used as part of the sandwich filling) to your preferred doneness.
Assemble the McGriddles by placing a slice of cheddar cheese on one pancake bun, followed by a sausage patty, a fried egg, and topping with another pancake bun. Repeat for the remaining servings.
Serve immediately, or freeze assembled McGriddles for a convenient low-carb breakfast option throughout the week.
