Ingredients:

For the Pancakes:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 ¼ cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp melted butter (plus extra for cooking & topping)

For the Scrambled Eggs:

  • 6 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk or cream
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste

For the Meats:

  • 8 slices thick-cut bacon
  • 4 breakfast sausages (or hot links, as pictured)

For Serving:

  • Maple syrup
  • Extra butter

Instructions:

1. Cook the Bacon & Sausages:

  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
  • In the same skillet or a separate pan, cook sausages until browned and cooked through (about 8–10 mins depending on thickness). Keep warm.

2. Make the Pancake Batter:

  • In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, and melted butter.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients; stir until just combined (don’t overmix — lumps are fine).

3. Cook Pancakes:

  • Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat, lightly butter it.
  • Pour about ¼ cup batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top, flip, and cook until golden brown.

4. Scramble the Eggs:

  • Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
  • Melt butter in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat.
  • Add eggs, cook slowly while gently stirring until soft curds form. Remove while still slightly creamy (they’ll firm up as they rest).

5. Serve:

  • Plate pancakes with butter and maple syrup.
  • Add scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausage on the side.

Pro Tip: Keep pancakes warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven on a baking sheet while cooking the rest.
