Longganisa (Sausage) Pancakes

Not enough meat to feed the omnivores for breakfast? Crumble and cook the sausage meat, and use to stuff pancakes. Longganisa (sausage) pancakes are so good!

Longganisa (Sausage) Pancakes

The trick here is to brown the sausage meat before you even mix the pancake batter. You will need the rendered fat to make the pancakes even tastier.

Will any sausage do? That depends on how much sugar you add to your pancake batter. If your pancakes are on the sweet side, you’ll want a sausage flavor that will create a good contrast with that sweetness. In our case, Vigan longganisa. The tang and spice are the perfect foil for the sweet pancakes.

Won’t sweet sausages do? Well, sweet on sweet can be cloying but if you like sweet sausages, I will just suggest that you temper the sweetness by adding a little vinegar and salt to the crumbled longganisa during the browning stage.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Author: Connie Veneracion

Ingredients

  • 1 cup crumbled longganisa
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour do not press into the measuring cup
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 teaspoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup milk
  • rendered sausage fat

Instructions

  • Heat a non-stick pan and spread the crumbled longganisa evenly. Cook over high heat for a few minutes to brown, stir to break up lumps and continue cooking until evenly browned.
  • Strain the browned longganisa; save the rendered fat.
  • Stir together the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder.
  • In a mixing bowl, lightly beat the egg and milk.
  • Add the flour mixture and stir just until blended.
  • Pour in four tablespoons of rendered longganisa fat and fold in. If you don't have enough rendered fat, add melted butter to whatever amount you have to make a total of four tablespoons.
  • If you want to rest the batter (see notes after the recipe), cover the bowl and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Stir the pancake batter a few times before you start to cook.
  • Reheat the same pan in which you browned the crumbled longganisa.
  • Pour in a teaspoon of rendered longganisa fat at the center of the pan.
  • Pour in about 1/4 cup pancake batter and sprinkle about a tablespoon of browned longganisa on top.
  • When the edges of the surface of the pancake are covered with bubbles, flip using a spatula and cook the opposite side until lightly browned (for a detailed illustration, see the basic pancake recipe).
  • Repeat until all the pancake batter is used up.

Cook’s Notes

We make pancakes from scratch here at home. If you want to use store-bought pancake mix instead, you may do so. If the instructions say add melted butter, I recommend substituting rendered fat from the sausage meat. If the instructions don’t say anything about adding oil nor butter, add rendered sausage meat fat anyway.

Now, about resting the pancake batter. Alex likes to do that to make the pancakes softer and fluffier. I don’t do that because I like flatter and chewier pancakes. It’s up to you whether to rest the batter or not before cooking.
