Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
In a large bowl, combine the sausage, 1/4 cup syrup and egg.
Add in the pancakes, and mix just until combined.
Form into tablespoon sized balls and place on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of maple syrup.
Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through, 22-25 minutes.
Serve meatballs with extra syrup for drizzling, if desired.
Notes
These breakfast sausage meatballs are a fun and tasty alternative to traditional breakfast sausage patties. They pair wonderfully with pancakes, waffles, or even as a protein boost in a breakfast scramble.
