MAPLE SAUSAGE AND WAFFLE CASSEROLE

I found this recipe in Cook's Country magazine. They did a taste test on frozen waffles and it turned out that EGGO Homestyle waffles were the best out of eight brands that they tasted. Depending on the size and shape of your waffles, you will need 6 to 8. Don't use Belgian style because they are too thick for this recipe. You can double the recipe and use a 9 X 13-inch baking dish. Time does not include refrigerating one hour or overnight.

Tips:

  • Prepare Ingredients in Advance: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients are prepped and measured out. This will help you save time and ensure accuracy in your measurements.
  • Use Quality Ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your casserole will taste. Choose fresh, high-quality sausage, waffles, and maple syrup.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the sausage, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the sausage from cooking evenly and may result in undercooked or burnt pieces.
  • Cook the Sausage Thoroughly: Make sure to cook the sausage until it is no longer pink in the center. This will help ensure that it is safe to eat.
  • Use a Good Waffle Recipe: The waffles you use in this casserole are important, so make sure you use a recipe that you like. You can find many different waffle recipes online or in cookbooks.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: When making the batter for the casserole, be careful not to overmix it. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense casserole.
  • Bake the Casserole Until Golden Brown: Bake the casserole until it is golden brown and bubbly around the edges. This will ensure that it is cooked all the way through.
  • Let the Casserole Cool Slightly Before Serving: Before serving the casserole, let it cool slightly for a few minutes. This will help prevent the casserole from falling apart when you cut into it.
