Turkey Breakfast Sausage
Ingredients
- 1 lb (454g) ground 85/15 turkey
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseeds
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp ground sage
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
- Cooking spray
Directions
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, maple syrup, parsley, flaxseeds, salt, sage, garlic powder, black pepper, and crushed red pepper. Stir until combined.
Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, portion the mixture and form into patties about 1/2-inch thick.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray. Cook the patties for about 3 minutes per side, or until browned, crusty, and no longer pink in the center with an internal temperature of 165°F. Reduce the heat if the patties begin to brown too quickly.
To freeze, arrange the patties on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze until solid. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months. To cook from frozen, heat in a skillet over medium-low heat, turning occasionally, for 10–12 minutes, or until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (73°C).
