Step-by-Step Instructions for Sausage Pancake Casserole

  2. Brown the breakfast sausage in a large skillet over medium heat for 8-10 minutes.
  3. Sauté chopped onion and green bell pepper in the same skillet for 5-7 minutes until softened.
  4. Mix cream of mushroom soup, ½ cup of milk, parsley, black pepper, garlic and onion powder, and heat for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Whisk together the eggs and 1 cup of milk in a mixing bowl until frothy.
  6. Combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper in another bowl and whisk until no lumps remain.
  7. Gradually mix dry ingredients into whisked eggs until just combined. Let rest for 5-10 minutes.
  8. Spread half of the pancake batter in the greased baking dish.
  9. Layer the cooked sausage and vegetable mixture over the pancake batter, then sprinkle half of the cheese on top.
  10. Pour the remaining pancake batter over the cheese layer, then top with the remaining cheese.
  11. Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  12. Let the casserole cool for 10-15 minutes before cutting and garnish with green onions, if desired.
