These homemade turkey sausage patties are flavorful, easy to make, and perfect for a hearty breakfast or a quick dinner.
In a mixing bowl, combine all the spices, sugar, and milk with the ground turkey until evenly mixed.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the patties tough.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Use slightly wet hands to prevent the mixture from sticking to your fingers.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with cooking spray.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the patties for a good sear.
Cook the patties in batches, about 4 minutes per side, until fully cooked.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure even cooking.
Serve the patties warm with your choice of sides, such as rye bread and spicy mustard.
Garnish with fresh herbs for a touch of color and added flavor.
