commonly breakfast sausage comes from a pouch at the grocery store, however these days I’m sharing a excellent manner to make it at domestic, the usage of easy elements! once you’ve made the patties, you could easily freeze them… or cook dinner them first, then freeze, for a fast, on-the-go breakfast idea!
And no longer just ANY breakfast sausage… one with a mouthwatering mixture of beef, turkey, sparkling herbs, seasonings and maple syrup. Ohhhh sure… can’t forget about that maple syrup! around right here, in case you take a brief stroll down the breakfast meats aisle at the grocery save, there are heaps of maple sausages available. There’s something approximately that little touch of sweetness that clearly takes the meat to an entire new stage.
I also desired to make those a bit at the lighter side, so that you can absolutely have greater of them proper?! Wait… that’s not how weight-reduction plan works is it? Hmm, that is why I’m the “chunky” chef you men… I quite tons usually want more food lol. however anyway, making these with half of floor turkey cuts the calories, then the floor red meat is available in to feature moisture (and flavor) so the patties aren’t dry and sawdust-tasting (you understand how a few all-turkey products can be, alas).
INGREDIENTS
- 1 lb ground pork
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (use the darkest REAL maple syrup you can find)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 Tbsp fresh sage chopped
- 3/4 tsp dried thyme (or 1 Tbsp fresh thyme - chopped)
- 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 3/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp paprika
INSTRUCTIONS
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with wax paper sprayed lightly with cooking spray, set aside.
- Add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl and use hands to mix until just combined.
- Spread mixture in an even layer in the prepared baking sheet, about 1/2" - 3/4" thick (this can be adjusted if you prefer a thicker patty). Spray the rim of a 3 1/2" biscuit cutter (or large-mouthed drinking glass) and cut out patties.
- If patties are having a hard time staying together, place on wax paper in the freezer for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
- Heat vegetable oil (about 1-2 Tbsp) in a large skillet over MED to MED-HIGH heat. Add patties to pan, making sure they aren't touching (you may have to cook in batches), and cook 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through to a temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Repeat with remaining patties.
