Applegate Naturals Chicken & Maple Breakfast Sausage Patties
What it is
These are pre-formed breakfast sausage patties made with chicken and a touch of maple. They are designed for quick and easy preparation, offering a savory and slightly sweet flavor profile. The patties are typically found in the refrigerated section of grocery stores, ready to be cooked and served alongside other breakfast items. They aim to provide a convenient option for busy mornings.
How people cook with it
These patties are a versatile addition to any breakfast spread. They can be cooked quickly on the stovetop or in the oven.
- Serve with eggs
- Add to breakfast sandwiches
- Crumble into breakfast bowls
- Pair with pancakes
To cook, place the frozen or thawed patties in a skillet over medium heat. Cook for approximately 6-8 minutes, flipping occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through. Alternatively, they can be baked in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) for safety. They are best enjoyed hot, straight from the pan or oven.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to pork-based sausages, these chicken and maple patties offer a lighter flavor profile. The inclusion of maple provides a subtle sweetness that balances the savory chicken, creating a distinct taste experience. They are also made with chicken, which some consumers prefer over pork.

How to keep the rest
After opening the package, store any unused patties in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator. They should be consumed within 3-5 days. For longer storage, the patties can be frozen. Ensure they are well-wrapped to prevent freezer burn.
