Mornings get a serious upgrade when you have a stack of these golden, spiced turkey patties waiting in the skillet. Ground turkey gets seasoned with sage, crushed fennel seeds, smoked paprika, and garlic powder — a combination that delivers that classic breakfast sausage flavor without any fillers, binders, or mystery additives. For anyone navigating legume sensitivities, store-bought sausage can be a minefield of hidden ingredients, but this recipe keeps everything clean and straightforward. Avocado oil gives each patty a beautifully caramelized crust, and cooking them to 165°F ensures they're perfectly done all the way through. The whole process is simple enough for a weekday but satisfying enough to anchor a leisurely weekend brunch spread. Make a double batch and you'll be set for the whole week.

Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and press each into a round patty about 1/2 inch thick.
