I am the queen of meals for my family- my one year old little dude- and my super picky partner.
Breakfast is one of the hardest meals for us.
I mean, it’s supposed to be the most important meal of the day, but no one has time to really make it.
Cereal?
No.
Yogurt?
Boring.
Fruit?
I mean, if there’s nothing else available.
Every so often I want a giant pancake with sausage drenched in maple syrup.
Doesn’t that sound good to you?
Well, I have come up with the perfect recipe for you! It is quick, flavorful, and something that all kids would eat up!
It’s also easy to take with you on the go, for those days when you’re running a little late for school or work.
Sausage stuffed mini pancakes are cute, fun, and delicious, perfect for your breakfast routine.

It’s so fun to eat, they’ll forget that they don’t like brown things or pancakes.
