This homemade breakfast sausage is absolutely delicious! You can't beat the flavor or quality of making your own sausage patties. Make ahead and freezing tips are included in the recipe.
Use your hand to pat everything down to your desired thickness. I aim for about a 1/2 inch. Use a biscuit cutter, mason jar, drinking glass, or an ice cream/cookie scoop to create patties.
Preheat your (skillet or griddle) and cook the patties until the bottom has a sear and it is cooked halfway through. Flip! Cook until no pink remains.
Baking Instructions
Preheat oven to 400˚F degrees.
Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment and cook for 10 minutes. Flip and cook another 7-10 minutes or until no pink remains.
Notes
Want to make sausage with a touch of sweetness? Try adding 2 tsp brown sugar or 1 tbsp of maple syrup to the mix.
The safe cooking temperature for ground pork and ground beef is 160˚F, ground chicken is 165˚F, and ground turkey is 165˚F.
