The Keto Mac Griddle breakfast sandwich is my healthy keto version of Mickey D’s Sausage McGriddles. In my view, it is spot on for the savory, maple pancake and sausage treat. If you are a McGriddles fan, you know exactly what I mean.

Keto Mac Griddle – A Stroke of Genius
So how did I come upon this stroke of genius I call the Keto Mac Griddle?
It all started with my Keto Breakfast Biscuits.
While developing the recipe I noticed how similar the taste and texture was to the McGriddle after putting Keto Buttery Maple Syrup on them. I knew I was on to something. So, I did a little more experimenting with the maple syrup and voila; perfection.
Putting the Keto Mac Griddle Together
It wasn’t a big stretch to add my homemade breakfast sausage to the breakfast biscuits and as a result, a star was born.
Of course, some people will go ahead and ruin a perfectly good Keto Mac Griddle Sandwich by adding an egg.
But to each his own, I always say. If you want to add an egg or even a piece of cheese, who am I to judge.
Meal Prep
This is a perfect recipe for meal prep. Each component can be made ahead and put together on the run.
The Keto buttery maple syrup can be made well in advance. I fact, I make up a batch quite regularly. It’s great in my morning coffee or on my keto instant noatmeal.
Similarly, make the Keto Breakfast sausage and pre-cook the patties. Then, freeze for later use. When your ready to make your breakfast sandwiches, simply take the sausage out of the freezer and place in the refrigerator the night before. The Keto breakfast biscuits can also be made ahead of time and frozen. Hopefully, your will power is better than mine, the biscuits are so good they rarely make it to my freezer.

When I calculate the carb content, I remove Erythritol from the total as it normally does not affect blood glucose levels. It’s important to note that each person’s diet needs, and restrictions are unique. You are in charge of your own health. It’s up to you to decide what carb totals you should use. The macros for my recipes are calculated using FatSecret. This is provided purely as a courtesy for my readers. While I try my best to be accurate, I recommend you verify all nutritional information on your own, instead of relying solely on my calculations.
Recommendations
Having the right keto pantry items ahead of time makes life so much easier when preparing recipes. Who looks forward to dropping everything you are doing right in the middle of preparing a recipe to run to the store. Furthermore, last minute shopping can break the budget. I have been guilty of paying much more for a product when I don’t plan ahead.
So today I have a couple of recommendations.
- First, be prepared by shopping for your essential pantry items ahead of time.
- Second, shop online for some of the best Keto friendly prices.
