Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 pound Ground sausage
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 slices Dairy-free cheese slices
- 1 tablespoon Ghee
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt together until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk 2 eggs, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a thick batter forms.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with a bit of olive oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet to form small pancakes, similar in size to English muffins.
Cook the pancakes on the skillet for about 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the pancakes and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the ground sausage. Cook over medium heat, breaking it into patties and cooking until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk remaining egg. In the skillet, add ghee and scramble the egg until just set.
To assemble the McGriddle, place one pancake on a plate, top with a sausage patty, scrambled egg, and a slice of dairy-free cheese. Top with another pancake to complete the sandwich.
Repeat the assembly process for the remaining ingredients. Serve warm and enjoy your Paleo Sausage Egg and Cheese McGriddles.
