Oatmeal pancake wrapped sausages with glazed Honeycrisp Apples

Breakfast time has so much potential. I like to change things up often and us try new things. The same meal plan often gets boring, so it is always nice for us to mix things up a bit. Today we tried a new recipe. You guessed it, oatmeal pancake wrapped sausages with glazed honeycrisp apples. I am big on using what I have and not making an extra trip to the store to get whatever it is I may need. So, for this recipe I did not have the breakfast style sausage links, but did have sausage on hand. It turned out nice and tasty. However, I think the breakfast type sausage would be easier to take a bite of. This is more of a fork and butter knife kind of breakfast.

Oatmeal pancakes:

1 cup flour

1/4 cup quick oats

2 tsp baking powder

sprinkle of salt

1 1/2 cup milk

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon oil 

Mix your flour, oats, powder and salt together. Add your milk, sugar and oil with a gentle stir until combined. A few lumps are alright. Spray your skillet with some cooking spray and use 1/6 cup scoops as your portion. Once it is nice and bubbly on top and cooked enough to flip, flip it over to brown the other side, then pull off the heat. 

Cook your sausages and set aside. Roll your sausages in your oatmeal pancakes and serve with your glazed apples. Yum!

Glazed Honeycrisp apples:

Core, peel and chop 2 Honeycrisp apples 

1/4 cup water

1/2 cup light brown sugar

Heat on stovetop at med-high heat until a thickened bubbly brown sauce forms. Serve on top or along side your oatmeal pancake wrapped sausages.

What did you have for breakfast? Have you tried anything new lately?

Blueberry Sausage Muffins

My kids are always wanting those breakfast corndogs.  You know the ones, the blueberry pancake wrapped sausages on a stick.  They just cost so much and really does not sit well with me as a breakfast I want to give my kids to jump start their day.  I decided I was going to make an alternative to them.

Really easy!

Martha White Muffin Mix- Make according to package

Original Johnsonville Breakfast Sausage- Cook, drain, refrigerate.

You can use any muffin or sausage you want, but those are just the ones that I used.   The pack of muffin mix gave me 6 muffin filled papers and 3 sausages cut in half was just enough.  Fill your muffin papers 1/2 full and insert your 1/2 sausage in the center.  A few of them did move a little, but for the most part they stayed in the middle.  

Let them bake until nice and golden brown and serve with your kids favorites.  We just had some scrambled eggs.  The kids ate them up!
