Homemade Pork Sausage Patties

Homemade pork sausage patties are a delicious and versatile addition to your breakfast table. These patties are made from fresh ground pork and a blend of savory herbs and spices, offering a perfect balance of flavors that can be tailored to your liking. Whether you enjoy them alongside eggs, in a breakfast sandwich, or as a protein-packed snack, these patties bring a homemade touch to any meal. Plus, making them yourself means you can control the ingredients, ensuring a healthier option free from preservatives and unnecessary additives.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional for a bit of heat)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional for a hint of sweetness)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Pork Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground pork with salt, black pepper, dried sage, dried thyme, dried rosemary, crushed red pepper flakes (if using), garlic powder, onion powder, and maple syrup (if using). Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  2. Form the Patties: Divide the pork mixture into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Cook the Patties: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage patties to the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the patties are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).
  4. Serve: Serve the sausage patties hot with your favorite breakfast sides. They can also be frozen for later use; just make sure to let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.

These homemade sausage patties are a fantastic way to start your day with a burst of flavor and satisfaction. Enjoy!
