Ingredients
Scale
Primary Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground Turkey
- 4 oz Smoked Turkey Bacon, finely chopped
- 1 tsp Onion Powder (natural)
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder (natural)
- 2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp Vegetarian Worcestershire Sauce (natural)
- 1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Natural Gelling Agent
Optional Variations
- Pinch of Cayenne Pepper or Chili Flakes (for heat)
- Fresh Thyme or Rosemary instead of Parsley
- 1/4 cup Grated Carrots or Zucchini
- 1/4 cup Shredded Plant-Based Cheese
- 1 tsp Maple Syrup (natural)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Finely chop the smoked turkey bacon and fresh parsley. In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey with onion powder (natural), garlic powder (natural), ground black pepper, salt, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and natural gelling agent. Mix gently but thoroughly to combine.
- Combine and Shape: Fold the smoked turkey bacon and parsley evenly into the turkey mixture. Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form small, evenly sized patties about two to three inches in diameter. Press firmly but carefully to help them hold together during cooking.
- Cook the Patties: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly oil with your preferred cooking oil. Place patties in a single layer and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Avoid moving them too soon for a good crust.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove patties from the skillet and let rest for one minute to allow juices to redistribute. Serve warm as desired.
Notes
- Do not overmix the ingredients to maintain tender patties.
- Make patties uniform in size to ensure even cooking.
- Cook on medium heat for crispy exterior and juicy interior.
- Let patties rest briefly before serving to keep moist.
- Make extra patties for convenient grab-and-go breakfasts during the week.
