Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together ground meat and breakfast sausage seasoning with your hands, being careful not to overmix.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, or preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
- While the oil is heating, form the sausage mixture into 12 patties (see notes below for tips).
- For pan frying: once the oil is hot, transfer patties to the skillet and fry, flipping as needed, until both sides are browned and the meat is cooked through, about 10-12 minutes total, depending on the thickness of your patties.
- For air frying: once the air fryer is preheated, spray the tray with cooking spray and place patties in a single layer, making sure there's empty space in between the patties so they don't stick together. Cook for 5 minutes, flip them over, and continue cooking until they're cooked through, about 3 minutes.
Notes
- Ground turkey is cooked when it hits an internal temperature of 165°F (an instant-read thermometer is perfect for checking this).
- If you don't have a batch of sausage seasoning, you can use the individual spices listed in my homemade breakfast sausage patties post (along with the 2 cloves of minced garlic) instead
- Don't crowd the pan! You'll likely need to work in batches with this recipe to prevent the patties from sticking together.
- When forming patties, wet your hands with cold water to help prevent the meat mixture from sticking to your hands.
- Using a scoop will help make all of your patties a consistent size, which will help them cook evenly. I like using a #30 scoop.
- The flatter you make the patties, the more quickly they'll cook.
