Start your morning right with these sweet and savory chicken breakfast sausage patties made with ground chicken and maple syrup – a healthier, flavor-packed option perfect for busy mornings.
In a medium bowl, combine the ground chicken, maple syrup, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, sage, and thyme. Mix gently with your hands or a spatula until everything is evenly incorporated.
With damp hands, form the mixture into 8–10 small patties, about 2 inches wide and ½ inch thick. Place them on a plate or tray.
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the sausage patties in a single layer. You may need to cook the patties in batches depending on your pan size.
Cook the patties for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
Notes
Recipe notes:
Save time/prep ahead:
Rather than forming patties cook the chicken sausage as crumbles instead, cutting down on prep time.
Make a double batch and freeze uncooked patties separated by parchment for quick meals. Cooked patties can also be frozen and reheated for a fast breakfast.
Form patties and store in the fridge for up to 24 hours before cooking. You can also pre-cook and refrigerate for easy weekday breakfasts – just reheat in a skillet or microwave.
These sausage patties are naturally gluten-free and dairy-free.
