    1 1/2 cups of Aldi’s brand pancake mix: $0.71

    2 cups of Aldi’s brand milk: $0.38

    4 Aldi’s brand eggs: $1.20

    1 cup of Aldi’s brand shredded cheese: $0.81

    1 TBLS of Fareway brand waffle syrup: $0.09

    TOTAL COST: $4.69 or $0.39/muffin

    Recipe:

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook package of sausage links on stove. After cooked, dice up so that 4 pieces are in the bottom of each muffin cup. In a large bowl mix pancake mix, milk, and eggs. Add cheese and syrup. Stir to combine. Spray the pan with nonstick spray. Fill each muffin tin with 1/4 cup of the mix. Add any leftover mix little by little to each muffin tin. Bake in oven for 25-35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
