Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 26 sausage patties
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
Dry Ingredients:
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
Cooking Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 to 2 cups vegetable oil
Optional Toppings:
- Butter
- Powdered sugar
- Maple syrup
Instructions
- Craft golden-brown sausage patties over medium-high heat until thoroughly cooked. Drain excess fat on paper towels, ensuring a crisp exterior.
- Blend dry ingredients in one mixing vessel: flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk egg and buttermilk separately, then integrate wet mixture into dry components. Fold gently, maintaining a slightly lumpy texture.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot to precisely 350°F. Maintain consistent temperature for uniform frying and optimal golden coloration.
- Thoroughly enrobe each sausage patty with pancake batter, ensuring complete and even coverage.
- Gently lower battered sausages into hot oil, working in small batches to prevent overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes, rotating to achieve uniform golden-brown crispiness. Extract with slotted spoon and rest on absorbent paper towels to eliminate residual oil.
- Present immediately while piping hot. Accompany with maple syrup, butter, and optional powdered sugar for dipping. Perfect for breakfast or spontaneous indulgence.
Notes
- Maintain precise oil temperature around 350°F to ensure crispy, evenly golden exterior without burning or undercooking the bites.
- Use buttermilk at room temperature for smoother batter consistency and better binding with dry ingredients.
- Keep sausage patties uniform in size to guarantee consistent cooking and coating throughout the batch.
- Drain bites on paper towels to remove excess oil and prevent soggy texture, ensuring a crisp and light bite.
