Ingredients
1 lb chicken breast (use a food processor to grind your own; or you can purchase ground chicken breast.)
1 tsp poultry seasoning
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp rubbed sage
1/4 cup maple syrup (real maple syrup, not sugar free and not pancake syrup)
1/2 tbsp olive oil
Categories
breakfast

Steps
Grind the chicken breast in a food processor to create ground chicken (or start with ground chicken breast).
Combine the other ingredients and mix into the ground meat. Form into 12 equal sized balls.
Preheat a frying pan over medium high heat. Add olive oil spray to the pan. Add 6 balls to the pan, and press down with your fingers to create patties (it will be sticky, wet your fingers to avoid sticking).
Cook the patties for 2-3 minutes per side, flip to finish cooking, until the internal temperature is 165F. Repeat with the remaining meat.
Refrigerate and use within 5 days, or freeze to use for the future.
To use from frozen, microwave to defrost.

Cambrea on 2024-10-23 (5 stars): I've made these a few times now and they always turn out so good! I make a double batch and will freeze the leftovers for later.
Jayden P on 2024-08-14 (5 stars): I was looking for protein options that did not include eggs (which i enjoy but i wanted more variety).
Sometimes you taste food and it's instantly yummy. This was one of those times for me. Thanks for sharing this recipe with us. #InstaYum
TnNg on 2024-05-18 (5 stars): I never knew how simple/fast making your own sausage patties were! Also saves on carbon footprint (less packaging) in addition to being less "processed" when it comes to nutritional value. i did try it with chicken breast, then dark meat, and then a combo of white and dark which was the overall preference for everyone. Nice to also be able to adjust the portions to make it bagel size.
Gena on 2024-05-05 (3 stars): I have to say the flavor is really good but they taste more like pancakes than sausage patties. I’m gonna try it again with maybe 1/3 of the maple syrup and will back off on the sage some too.
Chantel on 2024-02-18 (4 stars): Used already ground chicken. Didn’t have poultry seasoning so just added extra onion and garlic. These were soooo good. Everyone devoured them. I thought I’d have extra but no 🤣 I plan to make a triple batch and freeze. The only thing was I doubled it and cut back a little on the maple syrup but still could have probably only used a 1/4 cup maple syrup for a double batch. They were pretty sweet. But of course that meant my kids ate a ton! Also cooked in tallow for better flavor and healthier option.
Megan on 2024-02-17 (5 stars): This recipe is a keeper! I recently started grinding my own meat and am taking a break from beef and pork, so this was a good find. I didn’t do patties, just cooked it for breakfast casserole, but my whole family sampled it before I mixed in the casserole ingredients and we all LOVED it!
Kmart_special on 2024-02-17 (5 stars): Delicious. Very sticky after cooking. Paper towels are a no no.
Jennifer on 2024-01-15 (5 stars): Tried them this morning for the first time and they came out fantastic! Definitely going to make these again for the family.
I didn't have poultry seasoning so substituted Mrs. Dash Italian seasoning and a little black pepper and it worked just fine.
