These savory turkey and apple sausage patties strike the perfect balance between sweet and savory, making them ideal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Packed with protein and flavor, they’re quick and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground turkey (93% lean)
  • 1 large apple, peeled and grated (Honeycrisp or Gala recommended)
  • 1/2 small onion, finely chopped or grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs (use gluten-free breadcrumbs if needed)
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Peel and grate the apple using a box grater. Finely chop or grate the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, grated apple, onion, garlic, egg, breadcrumbs, sage, black pepper, and salt. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  3. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
  4. Place a skillet over medium heat and add about 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Allow the oil to heat up until it shimmers.
  5. Add the patties to the skillet in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should read 165°F (74°C).
  6. Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate lined with paper towels to remove any excess oil.

Notes

[‘Don’t overmix the ingredients to avoid dense and dry patties.’, ‘Opt for sweet and juicy apples like Honeycrisp or Fuji for the best flavor.’, ‘Test the seasoning by frying a small piece of the mixture first.’, ‘Preheat the skillet properly to ensure even browning and prevent sticking.’, ‘Cook the patties in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.’]
