How people cook with it
Turkey sausage patties are a popular choice for a quick and easy breakfast. They pair well with a variety of morning dishes.
- Serve with eggs and toast
- Add to breakfast sandwiches

- Side for pancakes or waffles
To cook, place the frozen or thawed patties in a skillet over medium heat. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through. You can also bake them in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through. Ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety. They are best served hot.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to pork breakfast sausage, these patties are made from turkey, which is generally leaner. This can result in a slightly different texture and a milder flavor profile. The seasoning is designed to complement the turkey without overpowering it.
