I love breakfast sausage, but most store-bought brands are high in calories and fat and not very diet-friendly. Try this slightly sweet version made with real maple syrup. The apples help keep the sausage moist. I like to cook up a batch on Sundays and store in the fridge for quick breakfasts all week. Take care not to overcook the patties.
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 1 small apple – peeled, cored, and finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup, or more to taste
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon dried sage
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon dried marjoram
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 dash ground cloves
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Combine turkey, apple, maple syrup, salt, sage, garlic powder, black pepper, marjoram, cinnamon, and cloves in a bowl; mix well. Form into 10 small patties.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry patties until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
