Maple Blueberry Breakfast Sausage
This sweet-and-savory breakfast sausage recipe is surely going to become a favorite as it has been for my clients for years! Juicy blueberries and sweet maple give it so much delicious flavor! Paleo and AIP-friendly.
I don't know about you, but breakfast is the time of day I want a really delicious meal. I can get by with things I may not like as much later in the day, but at breakfast… I won't eat something I don't absolutely love.
I've had this recipe in my membership, The Autoimmune Collective, for years now, and I constantly get notes from members telling me it's one of their favorites.
Same for my health coaching clients – they say if it wasn't for this recipe, they probably wouldn't have survived. I mean, that's a bit of an exaggeration on their part (I hope), but a great compliment!
So if you're anything like me or my clients, this Maple Blueberry Breakfast Sausage is a key item to start the day off right!
Maple Blueberry Breakfast Sausage
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground Pork
- 1 tbsp Maple Syrup
- 1/2 tsp dried Sage
- 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder (optional – omit if you want a sweeter sausage)
- 1 tsp Onion Powder (optional – omit if you want a sweeter sausage)
- 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
- 1/2 cup Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tbsp Coconut Oil or Avocado Oil (only for stove method below)
Instructions
- Mix everything except for the blueberries and coconut oil together in a large bowl. Once evenly mixed, gently mix in the blueberries. Form into 8 patties. Cook in either one of the two methods below:
MAKE ON THE STOVE:
- Heat the coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat. Place the patties in the pan and cook for 5 min a side or until cooked all the way through (no pink remains).
MAKE IN THE OVEN:
- You can alternatively cook these in the oven at 350 F for 20 minutes or until cooked through (no pink remains). They won’t brown like they will in the pan, but it’s more hands-off.
