Maple Turkey Sausage
Servings: 6 patties
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 lb. ground turkey
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon cracked red pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon dried sage
Instructions
- Mix the ground turkey, maple syrup, herbs and spices until fully combined. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and form into patties. When forming the patties, lightly wet your hands with water to help prevent the mixture from sticking.
- Heat the skillet over medium heat with a small amount of oil. When the skillet is hot add the patties making sure there is space between them.
- Allow the patties to brown on the first side for 7-8 minutes. If they are browning too quickly, turn the burner down to prevent burning. Turn the patties over and use the spatula to press and flatten the patty in the skillet.
- Continue cooking the patties over medium heat until the meat is fully cooked, about 7-8 more minutes. A digital food thermometer should read at least 165°F (74°C) when inserted into the center of a patty.
- Leftover sausage patties can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days. See notes below for freezing instructions.
