A yummy bacon, egg, and cheese McGriddle!

McGriddles are special breakfast sandwiches you can buy at McDonald's. They first came out in 2003. You can find them in many countries around the world. Some of these places include the United States, Canada, Japan, and the Philippines.

What is a McGriddle?

A standard McGriddles sandwich has a few tasty parts. It usually includes crispy bacon, a fluffy scrambled egg, and a slice of melty American cheese. All these yummy fillings are served between two small pancakes. These pancakes are special because they have a sweet maple flavor baked right into them. You might even spot the McDonald's logo pressed into the top and bottom pancakes!
