Milk (2 cups, substitute almond or coconut if preferred)
Maple syrup (¼ cup, Grade B recommended)
Salt (¼ tsp, adjust to taste)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13-inch dish with nonstick coating.
Cut frozen pancakes in half and arrange cut-side down in the dish.
Cook halal sausage in a skillet until browned. Drain excess grease.
Distribute cooked sausage between/around pancake layers.
Whisk eggs, milk, maple syrup, and salt in a bowl. Pour mixture over pancakes and sausage.
Cover casserole and refrigerate for 2-36 hours to absorb flavors.

Notes
Use day-old pancakes for better custard absorption
Let casserole cool completely before refrigerating to prevent sogginess
Add toasted pecans or maple sugar for extra flavor
Braintree maple syrup yields optimal flavor
