Ingredients

• 1 block (about 14 oz) firm tofu
• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon sage
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1.25 cups unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 0.25 cup maple syrup

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the sausage mixture: Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Crumble the tofu into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add rolled oats, ground flaxseed, soy sauce, maple syrup, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sage, and black pepper to the tofu. Mix until combined.

Step 3

Using a food processor, blend the sausage mixture until it is well mixed yet has some texture. Form into 4 patties. Set aside.

Step 4

In another bowl, prepare the pancake mixture: whisk together whole wheat flour and baking powder.

Step 5

Pour in the almond milk and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and just combined.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with a small amount of vegetable oil.

Step 7

Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter into the pan to form a small circle. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 1-2 minutes, then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

Step 8

Repeat with remaining batter, brushing the skillet with oil as needed. Aim to make 8 pancakes.

Step 9

Using the same skillet, cook the sausage patties over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side until browned and heated through.

Step 10

To assemble the McGriddles, place one pancake on a plate, drizzle a little maple syrup over it, top with a sausage patty, and cover with another pancake. Repeat for the remaining pieces.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy your vegan homemade Sausage McGriddles!
