Instructions

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
2. Boil the maple syrup in a small pot over medium heat, stirring often and constantly once it boils hard so it does not stick to the pot.
3. When the syrup reaches about 230°F, it calms down and turns slightly darker.
4. Remove from heat when it is quite dark and smells faintly of caramel, at about 265°F.
5. Spread the syrup thinly on the lined sheet and let it cool completely, then peel it off in chunks and break it into crystals.
6. Make one batch of pancake batter, or any batter that yields 8 pancakes about 4 inches wide.
7. Grease round molds with butter if using them, then heat a griddle over medium heat and butter it.
8. Place the molds on the griddle, pour 2 tablespoons batter into each, add several maple crystals, then pour 2 more tablespoons of batter on top.
9. Cook until bubbles form around the edges and the edges look set, remove the rings with tongs, flip, and cook 1 to 2 minutes more until done.
10. Assemble each sandwich with a slice of American cheese, a scrambled or fried egg, a piece of bacon or sausage, and a second pancake.
