Blender Mancakes
What’s better than waking up on a weekend to the smell of pancakes, sausage, and bacon cooking? It fills the whole house and somehow everyone seems to make their way out of their beds and into the kitchen awake and ready to start their day…with a delicious breakfast of course. I don’t blame them. I was one of those kids who would wake up to the smell of breakfast cooking and immediately know it was going to be a good day and a great morning. Even if it was 8:00 a.m. in my teen years, I found the strength to rise from my bed and follow my nose.
These Blender Mancakes are a one pan or griddle breakfast and allow you to have the perfect bite each time. A little pancake, a little sausage, and a little bacon. These cakes are hearty and fluffy, making them the perfect breakfast for any occasion.
They also freeze well so be sure to make extra so you can enjoy throughout the week for a quick breakfast on the go. Just separate each cake with a piece of parchment paper before storing in the freezer so they don’t stick together.
Blender Mancakes
Ingredients
- 1 Aidells Chicken Apple Chicken Sausage, chopped
- 3 pieces of bacon or turkey bacon
- 1 cup dairy-free Greek yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 3 tablespoons orange juice (lemon juice will also work)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup tapioca or oat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt
Instructions
- Heat a griddle or medium pan over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until just browned. Remove to a plate and set aside.
- Add bacon to the same pan or griddle used for the sausage and cook through. Remove to a paper towel lined plate and allow to cool slightly. Chop or break bacon into pieces and set aside.
- Remove excess grease from the pan or griddle if using regular bacon. Grease the pan or griddle if using turkey bacon.
- In a blender add yogurt, eggs, orange juice, vanilla, maple syrup, then add flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Blend until well combined, scraping sides halfway through. *if batter becomes too thick pulse in blender before pouring into pan*
- Reduce heat on pan or griddle to medium. Add about ¼ cup of batter, sprinkle with sausage and bacon pieces and cook 2-3 minutes or until the pancake starts to bubble, then flip and cook an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Top pancakes with additional sausage and bacon pieces and warm maple syrup.
