Making breakfast on-the-go a simpler task, [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fat-grilled-burrito) user Crouton Crackerjacks essentially made a [breakfast corn dog](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wienerschnitzel-1). The portable fair treat that consists of a hot dog fried in cornmeal batter got a complete makeover in this recipe, as it's now a breakfast novelty on a stick. All you need to make some yourself is sausage links and pancake mix. First, fry up the sausages until they are a delicious golden brown and then, skewer them with popsicle sticks. When all of the skewing is complete and the sausages are completely cooled down, roll them into [pancake batter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/american-style-pancake-mix) and deep-fry them for about 45 seconds. Once they are done, you can enjoy them on their own or dip them in some maple syrup. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.0/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Breakfast On-the-go:** Opportunity to create convenient and portable breakfast options for busy individuals. - **Creative Food Mashups:** Opportunity to explore unique combinations of familiar foods to create new taste experiences. - **Alternative Fair Treats:** Opportunity to reinvent traditional fair foods with unexpected twists. ### Where This Applies - **Food Manufacturing:** Opportunity for food manufacturers to develop and produce innovative breakfast products. - **Food Service:** Opportunity for restaurants and food trucks to offer creative and portable breakfast options. - **Event Planning:** Opportunity for event planners to incorporate alternative fair treats into their menus. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sweet-Savory Breakfast Sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pancake-sausage-stick.md) - [Pizza-Flavored Corn Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pepperoni-pizza-sausage.md) - [Korean Cuisine Corndogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mopo-corn-dog.md) - [Tasty Breakfast-Style Chimichangas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bacon-sausage-breakfast-chimichanga.md) - [Hot Dog Danishes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/papa-damour.md) - [Vegan Corn Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-corn-dog.md) - [Pancake-Based Breakfast Taco](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bacon-egg-and-cheese-pancake-tacos.md) - [Ranch-Drizzled Corn Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hotnranch-corn-dog.md) - [Snackable Pancake Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bite-sized-pancakes.md)
