Total Time 18 minutes mins
- 1 1/2 lbs ground pork
- 1 teaspoon sage
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil as needed
In a medium-sized bowl, use your hands to combine the ground pork and seasoning.
Season with sage, thyme, garlic powder, salt, pepper and nutmeg and combine well.
Sweeten with maple syrup, as desired.
Place 1 Tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
As the oil heats, portion out the sausage mixture in 1/4 cup portions and form into flat 1/2" thick patties.
Cook the sausage patties, 4 at a time, in the hot oil for 3-4 minutes per side, until well browned and an inserted thermometer reaches 145F minimum.
Repeat with all patties, adding extra olive oil as needed.
