In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Tips for Success

Keep them warm by placing cooked sausage pancakes on a baking sheet in a 200°F oven while finishing the batch.
-
Make ahead: Cook and freeze, then reheat in the oven or air fryer.

Batter thickness: If too thick, add a splash of milk; if too thin, add a little flour.
Fun Variations
