Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed or minced
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme, finely chopped
- 1¼ tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for frying)
Instructions
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, maple syrup, garlic, thyme, and sea salt. Use a spoon to mix initially, then your hands to ensure everything is evenly combined.
- Shape the Patties: Form the mixture into small round patties about ½–¾ inch thick and 2 inches wide. Aim for uniform sizes for even cooking.
- Cook the Sausages: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties in a single layer (don’t overcrowd). Cook for about 5 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).
- Serve Warm: Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil and serve immediately.
Notes
Serving Suggestions: Pair with roasted sweet potatoes or sautéed greens for a hearty breakfast. Fresh fruit like berries adds a refreshing contrast to the savory flavors.
Tips & Tricks:
- Keep the meat mixture cold for easier shaping.
- Avoid pressing down on the patties while cooking to retain their juices.
Storage & Reheating:
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months (separate layers with parchment paper).
- Reheat in a skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes per side or cook frozen patties over low heat with a lid until warmed through.
