Lovely, quick and easy turkey sausage for breakfast, brunch, or any meal of the day. Enjoy separately, crumbled up or sandwiched between your choice of “bread” and garnishes.

Ingredients

• 1 lb. ground turkey
• 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
• 1 tsp fennel seeds, ground
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1.5 tsp ground coriander
• 1/4 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp sage
• 1/2 tsp marjoram
• 1 tbsp. maple syrup or honey (optional)
• 1 tsp oil
• seasoning: salt and pepper

Instructions

1

If necessary, grind up fennel seeds using a coffee grinder or similar equipment.

2

In a mixing bowl combine salt, ground fennel, black pepper, ground coriander, paprika, sage and marjoram.

3

In a large mixing bowl, add ground turkey. Sprinkle seasoning mixture over turkey. Add maple syrup or honey if using. Gently mix turkey and seasonings together, keeping the meat mixture loose without squeezing.

4

Using wet hands loosely form 8 round patties without pressing or squeezing them.

5

Warm a griddle or non-stick pan over medium-high heat with 1 tsp oil. Place patties on a lightly seasoned griddle/pan. Season the tops of patties and fry on both sides. Remove a patty only when its internal temperature reaches 170F (165F is the minimum temperature for poultry). Repeat in batches as necessary.

Notes

Optionally, add red pepper flakes for more heat.
