Turkey breakfast sausage patties are a fantastic way to start your morning off in a healthy way! This turkey breakfast sausage recipe is clean eating and the patties are delicious and SO easy to make!
Sometimes, you just gotta have some sausage with breakfast. Am I right?! That's been my experience anyway. What else could possibly pair so well with eggs? Well, okay. Bacon goes really well with eggs too. But a girl needs a little variety, even with clean bacon! Enter this clean eating turkey breakfast sausage recipe. It's a delicious solution to the same ol', same ol' for breakfast!
I've searched high and low, but I've yet to find a store-bought turkey sausage that qualifies as truly clean and doesn't have any added sugar, so I decided it was high time to make my own. And the nice thing is, the sodium content won't give you a stroke just by looking at your plate.
How Many Calories Are In A Turkey Breakfast Sausage?
By making your own breakfast sausage, you are able to control the ingredients that go into it. You can choose to use healthier oils and the leanest ground turkey possible.
These homemade sausage patties are approximately 57 calories each. That number can vary, depending on how large you make the patties.
You can make up a batch of these and freeze them either before cooking or after cooking. Whatever your preference is. Just be sure they are packed up air-tight to avoid freezer burn. They'll last in the freezer for about 4 months before they start to taste funny. But the good news is, they are tasty enough to not last that long in your freezer.
What You'll Need
1¼ lb. ground turkey – You can use extra lean if you prefer, but they won't be as good in flavor or in texture.
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ground sage
½ tsp ground allspice
How To Make Turkey Breakfast Sausage
In a medium mixing bowl, mix together all the ingredients.
Form into 12 equal portions, shape into patties and cook. You can either fry them or bake them it's up to you.
If frying: Coconut oil or olive oil is a great way to go.
If baking: Use parchment and bake at 350 for about 30 minutes, give or take. Break one open to see if they are done cooking. I also highly recommend the use of a thermometer when cooking meat. The patties should reach at least 165 F. to be fully cooked.
