Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 4 large Eggs
- 4 oz Cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Sugar-free maple syrup
- 8 oz Ground sausage
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by making the low carb pancake buns. In a blender, combine almond flour, 2 eggs, cream cheese, baking powder, vanilla extract, and sugar-free maple syrup. Blend until the batter is smooth and well incorporated.
Step 2
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a little butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake bun, similar to how you'd make regular pancakes.
Step 3
Cook the buns for about 2-3 minutes on one side, until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining batter to make a total of 8 pancakes.
Step 4
While the buns are cooking, prepare the sausage patties. Form the ground sausage into four equal patties. Season each patty with salt and pepper on both sides.
Step 5
In another skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage patties for about 4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and browned.
Step 6
In the same pan used for the sausage, remove excess grease and fry the remaining 2 eggs (to be used as part of the sandwich filling) to your preferred doneness.
Step 7
Assemble the McGriddles by placing a slice of cheddar cheese on one pancake bun, followed by a sausage patty, a fried egg, and topping with another pancake bun. Repeat for the remaining servings.
Step 8
Serve immediately, or freeze assembled McGriddles for a convenient low-carb breakfast option throughout the week.
