Certain items on the McDonald's Menu are guilty pleasures for me and one of them is McGriddles, something I've not seen on the menu here in Mexico. I decided to try my hand at a home made version. I just used my regular pancake recipe but cooked them in an oiled round cookie cutter, adding in maple syrup a few minutes after they start cooking on the first side.

Ingredients:

1 c flour
1 egg
3/4 c milk
1/4 c sugar
1 T baking powder
2 T butter, melted
Maple Syrup
Eggs, Sausage and/or Bacon for Filling

Prepare the batter as usual, starting with the flour, baking soda and sugar in a bowl. Then add the milk, egg and butter and mix just until combined. Heat a pan to medium low and set the oiled cookie cutter on the pan. Fill about halfway with batter and allow to cook for about a minute before drizzling the syrup. Carefully flip to the other side and remove the ring when needed. Once they're cooked just fill with your favourite breakfast things and eat!
