Prepare the Pancake Batter In a bowl, whisk together pancake mix, milk, egg, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. The batter should be slightly thick but pourable.
Cook the Sausages If using raw sausages, cook them in a pan over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess oil and set aside.
Heat the Pan Lightly grease a non-stick skillet or griddle with butter and heat it over medium-low.
Dip the Sausages Using tongs or a fork, dip each sausage into the pancake batter, coating it evenly. Let excess batter drip off.
Cook Until Golden Brown Place the battered sausages onto the heated skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Flip Gently Use a spatula to flip carefully so the batter stays intact. Cook until both sides are golden and crispy.
Keep Warm Place the cooked Pigs in a Blanket on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Keep them warm in a low oven (200°F/95°C) while finishing the batch.
