- 6 sausage patties
- 6 slices of cheese (American, cheddar, or melty alternative)

- Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.

Notes
If using pre-cooked sausage patties, reheat them fully before assembling. To enhance fluffiness, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
