Low FODMAP Maple Sage Breakfast Sausage
Low FODMAP Maple Sage Breakfast Sausage is infused with herbs and a light sweetness to accompany the most important meal of the day.
Servings 4 (2 patties per serving)
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey or pork (for the turkey, don't go leaner than 93%)
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried leaf rubbed sage (or 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh)
- 1 tablespoon FODY Garlic-Infused Oil
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 teaspoon fresh)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the ground turkey or pork, maple syrup, salt, sage, garlic oil, thyme and pepper until well combined. Shape into 8 round patties, about 3 1/2 inches diameter.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties to the skillet and cook about 2 1/2 minutes per side (or until internal heat has reached 165 degrees F). Cook in batches if needed. Serve.
Notes
Helpful hints:
- I've found that the addition of the maple syrup makes the mixture quite sticky and difficult to handle, so I coat a cutting board (one designated for raw meat use) and my hands with cooking spray. Then place the formed patties on the cutting board and then transfer to the heated skillet. This helps me get the patties as thin as possible by flattening them down on the cutting board.
- A cupcake scoop works perfectly to portion out the mixture into eight patties. One scoop = one patty.
- If your patties are too thick, you may need to cook them longer at a lower temp.
- I use my extra large skillet so I am able to cook the patties all at once.
