Cheesy Chorizo Pancakes are a sweet and savory treat, would be the perfect brunch or breakfast for dinner meal
Set a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the chorizo. Cook 5 to 6 minutes, breaking it apart as it cooks. Remove from skillet or griddle and set on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the excess grease.
Make the pancake mix according to the directions on the box, enough for 10 to 12 pancakes. Add the cooked chorizo and cheese, stir until evenly mixed.
Set another skillet (or clean the same one used for the chorizo) over medium low heat, or preheat your griddle to medium low. Once hot add some butter and a scoop of pancake batter.
Flip the pancake after 1 1/2 to 2 minutes and cook for another minute. Repeat with remaining pancakes.
Note: If making them on a griddle they can be cooked all at once.
Mix the maple syrup and hot sauce, serve with the pancakes.
