In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter.

Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

Preheat your skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it.

Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet for each bite and add a piece of chopped sausage on top.

Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Transfer the cooked bites to a warm plate or cover with a clean kitchen towel.

Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup.
