These herby sausage patties are the perfect weekend brunch treat!
The Deets:
There’s nothing better than starting your Saturday morning with a hearty and comforting breakfast, especially on a chilly winter day. Enter: herby sausage patties, the ultimate savory treat to warm you up. These patties are a match made in heaven when paired with a side of creamy, soft scrambled eggs, creating a breakfast that’s both cozy and satisfying. To make these sausage patties, I combined a delicious blend of fresh sage, earthy thyme, aromatic fennel seeds, a pinch of red pepper flakes for subtle heat, a drizzle of sweet maple syrup for balance, and ground pork sausage. After shaping the mixture into small, flavorful patties, I pan-fried them to golden perfection. The result? Juicy, savory bites with just the right hint of spice and sweetness. Serve them fresh from the skillet and enjoy this tasty brunch! Serve this for your family or friends and they will be definitely be impressed! It’s a great one to service around the holidays, too.
