Paleo Herb & Ginger Mini Sausage Patties
These little patties pack a serious punch of flavor — ground pork seasoned with fresh sage, thyme, parsley, ginger, garlic, turmeric, and a whisper of Ceylon cinnamon, then pan-seared in coconut oil until deeply golden. Every ingredient is clean and whole, which is exactly what makes this recipe such a reliable fit for anyone eating grain-free and avoiding processed additives. Store-bought breakfast sausage is notorious for hidden fillers, sugar, and preservatives, so making your own from scratch is genuinely the smarter move. The technique here is straightforward: mix, press into small rounds, and cook undisturbed until you get that gorgeous caramelized crust. Ginger and turmeric give the patties a subtle warmth that feels a little unexpected for breakfast but completely works. Twelve portions come together with minimal effort, and they're the kind of thing you'll want to meal-prep ahead so mornings feel a little less chaotic.
