Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for McGriddle Bites
  1. Preheat your oven to 400ºF (204ºC) and grease each cup of a mini muffin tin.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage for 5-7 minutes until browned, then drain excess grease.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine pancake mix, water, and maple syrup; stir until just combined.
  4. Fold in the cooked sausage and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
  5. Fill each muffin cup about three-quarters full with the batter.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown; a toothpick should come out clean.
  7. Let the bites cool for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and serve warm.
