Ingredients

• 300 grams Ground chicken breast
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Sage
• 0.25 teaspoon Onion powder
• 200 grams Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt (for pancakes)
• 250 milliliters Low-fat buttermilk
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 1 bottle Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, salt, pepper, garlic powder, sage, and onion powder. Mix well to combine.

Step 2

Form the mixture into 4 equal patties and set aside.

Step 3

In another bowl, prepare the pancake mixture by sifting together whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together low-fat buttermilk, egg, and maple syrup until fully combined.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until the batter is just mixed. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.

Step 7

Cook the chicken sausage patties on the skillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.

Step 8

Re-spray the skillet with cooking spray. Spoon about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter to make 8 pancakes.

Step 9

Assemble the McGriddle by placing a chicken sausage patty between two pancakes. Serve immediately and enjoy your Low Fat Homemade Sausage McGriddle.
