Pancake Breakfast Burger with Syrup Drizzle

Grab your spatula because we’re merging breakfast and burgers into one glorious stack. This pancake breakfast burger delivers sweet and savory satisfaction in every messy bite. Crispy bacon, a juicy patty, and fluffy pancakes unite under a sweet syrup drizzle.

Ingredients

– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 tbsp granulated sugar
– 1 tsp baking powder
– 1/2 tsp baking soda
– 1/4 tsp kosher salt
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1 large farm-fresh egg
– 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter
– 4 slices thick-cut applewood smoked bacon
– 1/2 lb ground chuck beef (80/20 blend)
– 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
– 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
– 2 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

1. Whisk 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tbsp granulated sugar, 1 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, and 1/4 tsp kosher salt in a large bowl.
2. Pour 1 cup buttermilk, 1 large farm-fresh egg, and 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter into the dry ingredients.
3. Mix until just combined—small lumps are fine to prevent tough pancakes.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with 1 tbsp vegetable oil.
5. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake, cooking until bubbles form on the surface (about 2 minutes).
6. Flip pancakes and cook until golden brown (another 1-2 minutes).
7. Cook 4 slices thick-cut applewood smoked bacon in a separate skillet over medium heat until crispy (6-8 minutes), then drain on paper towels.
8. Form 1/2 lb ground chuck beef into two equal patties, slightly wider than your pancakes to account for shrinkage.
9. Season patties generously with salt and pepper, then cook in the bacon skillet over medium-high heat for 4 minutes per side for medium doneness.
10. Place 2 slices sharp cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.
11. Stack one pancake, a cheese-topped patty, two bacon slices, and another pancake for each burger.
12. Drizzle 1/4 cup pure maple syrup over the assembled burgers just before serving. Zero in on that perfect bite where fluffy pancakes meet the savory beef and crispy bacon. The maple syrup creates sticky-sweet pockets that contrast beautifully with the salty cheese and smoky bacon. Serve these open-faced with a fork and knife, or embrace the mess and eat with your hands—just have extra napkins ready.
