Homemade McDonald’s McGriddle Breakfast Sandwich is one of my recipes of the day. Earlier I posted my recipe for 5-Ingredient Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes. Those are used in the preparation of this recipe.
Homemade McDonald’s McGriddle Breakfast Sandwich
These are pretty much like the ones they serve. Although I say that tongue in cheek. My husband might grab one of theirs on the way to work, but I don’t care for what they make.
Although I do like these. It’s hard to say what I don’t like about theirs, but it is probably the syrup. I don’t order their hotcakes either. In fact, I am particular about my syrup, and will generally only use real syrup or a particular brand of sugar-free syrup I can swallow without revolt. (Otherwise I use Vermont sugar-free butter flavored low calorie syrup; Maple Grove Farms). On these I just used pure maple.
I know Mickey D’s also does an omelet on these but I did mine the way they make the eggs for the McMuffin (egg cooked in a ring mold). You know I did that on purpose because. I can do that! You do yours however you like.
I used the 5-ingredient pancakes from my blog on these. If you make those using the 1/4 cup batter you should get perfectly sized pancakes to use here. In fact, I used my leftovers from that to make these. Otherwise I would generally wrap my pancakes between sheets of waxed paper and freeze to nuke for some other breakfast.

Equipment
- nonstick cooking spray
- nonstick skillet
- 4-inch metal rings cutters or egg cooking rings
Ingredients
- 8 4-inch buttermilk pancakes
- 6 ounces precooked breakfast pork sausage patties (I used Boar's Head, 4 in a package)
- 3 ounces American cheese slices (four)
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Warm pancakes; melt a slice of cheese on each of four. On the other four, drizzle one tablespoon of maple syrup per pancake.
- Heat sausage patties and place on top of the cheese on the pancakes.
- Spray the ring mold with nonstick spray and place in a lightly oiled skillet. Crack the egg into it and use a knife to stab at the yolk to break and spread it.
- As the sides of the eggs start to set, use tongs to lift the ring mold off, and flip the egg with a pancake turner to finish cooking the other side. Do all four eggs as you have space in the skillet.
- Season eggs with salt and pepper and place on top of the sausage, topping with the last pancakes.
