With pre-made pancakes and frozen sausage patties, re-create McDonald's hot-selling McGriddles, the breakfast pancake burger that's chewy, doughy, sweet and savoury.

It's incredibly easy: you'll keep one eye on a hot oiled pan for the patties, and the other on the microwave as it warms up the pancakes. Then, cook an egg and zigzag on some maple syrup for a true McDonald's experience.

If you're looking for a more local lick to this cult breakfast burger, try it with satay sauce.
