Pancake Sausage Casserole
Pancake sausage casserole layers fluffy pancakes, savory sausage, creamy baked eggs, and melty cheddar—perfect for make-ahead breakfasts or brunches.
- 1 cup pancake mix (like Bisquick) or homemade pancake batter
- 1½ cup milk
- 8 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 lb breakfast sausage
- Salt and pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Whisk together pancake mix, milk, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Pour the batter into the bottom of the dish.
Evenly sprinkle cooked, crumbled sausage over the batter. Add diced veggies on top if using.
In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Slowly pour over the sausage and veggies, letting it soak in.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar evenly across the top.
Bake for 35–40 minutes, until golden on top and the center is set. Let it cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.
