This savory breakfast patty gets all of its bold, classic flavor from a well-balanced spice blend — warm sage, earthy thyme, and smoked paprika mingle with garlic and onion powder, a touch of black pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes for gentle heat. A hint of maple syrup rounds out the seasoning with just a whisper of sweetness, balancing the savory notes perfectly. The mixture presses easily into eight tidy patties, ready to crisp up in the air fryer until deeply golden on the outside. In just 10–12 minutes, you get patties with crackly, browned edges and a tender center, no stovetop grease splatter required. It's a quick, satisfying way to bring hearty, seasoned breakfast patties to the table, and it fits neatly into a vegan spread. Serve them alongside your favorite morning sides for a filling, flavor-packed start to the day.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, sage, thyme, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes and maple syrup if using. Mix with your hands until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the meat, about 30 seconds — stop as soon as the mixture is uniform to keep the texture tender.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and press each into a round patty about 3 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick. Slightly thinner edges help the patties cook evenly.
