Ingredients

• 1 pound ground pork
• 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon ground sage
• 0.5 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, maple syrup, brown sugar, salt, black pepper, ground sage, crushed red pepper flakes, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Step 2

Using your hands or a large spoon, mix the ingredients together thoroughly until evenly combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the patties dense.

Step 3

Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a small patty, about 2.5 inches in diameter.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the vegetable oil.

Step 5

Once the oil is hot, add the sausage patties to the skillet, leaving enough space between them to cook evenly. Work in batches if necessary.

Step 6

Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 7

Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Step 8

Serve hot alongside eggs, pancakes, or biscuits, and enjoy!
