Instructions

Prepare the Pancake Batter:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Cook the Sausage Links:
If using raw sausage links, cook them according to package instructions until fully cooked. Let them cool slightly.
Make the Mini Pancakes:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
Pour 1 tablespoon of batter onto the skillet for each mini pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Assemble the Bites:
Wrap each mini pancake around a sausage link, securing it with a toothpick if needed.
Serve:
Serve warm with maple syrup for dipping.

Notes

Use pre-cooked sausage links for a quicker option.
Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the pancake batter for extra flavor.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
For a fun twist, drizzle with chocolate sauce or sprinkle with powdered sugar.
