Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks.

In a large mixing bowl, combine pancake mix, eggs, milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, baking powder, and cinnamon until just combined.

Spread the cooked sausage evenly in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.

Pour the pancake batter over the sausage in the baking dish, spreading it evenly.

Drizzle additional maple syrup over the top for a sweet glaze.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the pancake bake is puffed and golden brown.

Let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
