Instructions

Brown the Sausage: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it into crumbles. Cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and fully cooked. Set aside.
Prepare the Pancake Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together pancake mix, milk, eggs, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until smooth. Ensure there are no lumps.
Assemble the Casserole: Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and layer the cooked sausage at the bottom. Pour the pancake batter over the sausage and top with shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 35-45 minutes until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
Serve and Enjoy: Allow the casserole to cool slightly before slicing and serving with maple syrup and fresh berries, if desired.

Notes

Gluten-Free Version: Use a gluten-free pancake mix and check that the sausage is gluten-free.
Dairy-Free Option: You can use plant-based milk like almond or oat milk.
Vegetables: Add bell peppers, onions, or spinach for extra flavor and nutrition.
Alternative Meats: Try using turkey sausage for a leaner option.
Cheese Variations: Swap the cheddar cheese for mozzarella, gouda, or pepper jack for different flavor profiles.
Individual Servings: You can bake the casserole in muffin tins for single servings.
