To make the pancake batter, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine the milk, maple syrup, vegetable oil, and the egg. Whisk until well mixed.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Some lumps are okay.
Heat a lightly greased non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Spoon 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet to form a round pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter to make 6 pancakes.
In another non-stick skillet, cook the vegetarian sausage patties according to package instructions. Set them aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Melt the butter in a clean skillet over medium heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring gently, until scrambled and fully cooked, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
To assemble each sandwich, place one pancake on a plate. Top with a vegetarian sausage patty, some scrambled eggs, a slice of cheddar cheese, and another pancake. Repeat to make two more sandwiches.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Vegetarian Sausage Egg and Cheese McGriddles.
