Pancake Foldover Breakfast
Add Protein to Pancakes
Add protein from simply adding an egg and/or sausage to pancakes prepared from a box mix. The protein from a pancakes box mix serving amounts to about 4 grams. Add an egg with another 6 grams. Add another 3 grams by including half a sausage patty. The protein in the pancake foldover will then equal approximately 13 grams. One cup of blueberries for the whole recipe only amounts to 1.1 grams.
Pancakes and syrup always go together. On the other hand, pancakes satisfy the palate just as great without the syrup. But if the extra dip-in-the-syrup sweetness seems better to you, go for it. I tried the foldover both ways but prefer it with no syrup.
Try these Blueberry Pancake, Egg, and Sausage Foldover options:
- make it with only the egg
- make it with only the sausage
- make it plain without blueberries
- serve it plain with blueberries on the side
This recipe was a fun and tasty creation. It made me think of a funny story my daughter told me about my toddler granddaughter. She LOVES pancakes. One morning my daughter made her some special ones cooked with blueberries. My granddaughter looked down at the plate and started crying. She didn’t like the berries in her pancakes. When I was visiting, I made some pancakes one day and added blueberries to some of them but made sure she had her share with no berries. She really wanted another pancake after she finished all of hers so she tried one with the blueberries and did not like it.

I like the idea of folding a small blueberry pancake and stuffing a small sausage in it. Bite size is a good way to limit your intake if you’re watching your weight. You can eat less by playing with your food! That also helps you slow down while eating and the slower you eat the more full you feel.
My mother always ate slowly. Folding the pancake, stuffing it with sausage and egg, was fun!
I love pigs in a blanket–sausages rolled up inside pancakes, so I know that this will be delicious.
