McGriddles are a type of breakfast sandwich sold by the international fast food restaurant chain McDonald's. Introduced in 2003,[2] it is available in the following markets: United States, Turkey, Canada, Poland, Japan, Guatemala, Mexico, the Philippines, Singapore, and New Zealand (for a limited time).

Product description

The standard McGriddles sandwich consists of fried bacon, a scrambled egg flap, and American cheese served on a small pancake made with maple flavoring. Both the top and bottom pancakes are embossed with the McDonald's logo.

When McDonald's launched its all-day breakfast menu in October 2015, McGriddles were initially excluded from the menu,[3] but the chain eventually added the item to it in September 2016.[4]
