Making your own homemade breakfast sausage patties means you can skip the added sugars but still get all the great flavor!
I’ve taken a particular liking to maple breakfast sausages lately. Maybe it’s the Canadian in me, but maple-flavoured things are a serious weakness. My whole family loves both the sausage links and patties from Jones Dairy Farm, which are gluten-free and don’t contain the soy, dextrose, BHT & BHA that other brands use. Their maple sausages are somewhat addicting, actually and I could easily eat too many in one sitting. My kids would be perfectly happy to make a full breakfast (or lunch, or dinner) out of those sausages!
But as I love to experiment in the kitchen, I had to try my hand at making a sugar-free low carb maple breakfast sausage. And although I do own a sausage maker, I decided to simplify and form them into patties so that anyone can make them. If you have the time, these are pretty easy to mix up and make a fun breakfast option. And if you don’t have the time, the all-natural, gluten-free sausage patties from Jones Dairy Farm are a really great option.

Where is the recipe, please?
I have tried to make my own sausage, but it turns out dry as I don’t care for pork. I use ground chicken or turkey. I do add a bit of water and some oil, but I’d like a better recipe, and Carolyne’s recipes are GREAT!
It is on the Swerve page. The Link in her article doesn’t go directly to it anymore but I’ll try to post it here if the page will allow links. If it doesn’t show up, go to the swerve page and start looking through the breakfast recipes. Search didn’t work for me, but going page by page I found it. I also printed it out so I don’t have to hunt next time, lol.

Do I have to used the Maple Syrup or this is option?
It’s maple flavouring and it’s entirely optional.
I make these minus the maple syrup and swerve
they are fabulous.
For a teatime spicy treat I add chilli flakes.
This recipe sounds wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
Maple Sage Breakfast Sausage Patties
Ingredients
1 lb ground pork
2 tbsp chopped fresh sage
2 tbsp granular Swerve Sweetener 1 tsp maple extract
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp cayenne
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine pork, sage, Swerve, maple, salt, pepper, garlic powder and cayenne. Use hands to mix thoroughly. Form into 8 even patties and flatten to about 1 inch thick.
Add a little oil or butter to a large skillet over medium heat. Add patties and cook about 3 to 4 minutes per side, until an instant read thermometer inserted in the center reaches 145F.
Makes about 4 servings.
Ladies when you click on the link to Swerve go to the search menu and type in Maple Sausage
You’ll be able to find it.
I’m not seeing it anymore I seen it for a minute and then it’s gone
Huh, maybe Swerve is having issues with their website?
I’m not seeing a recipe anywhere on this page. I see a link for another recipe (or maybe it’s the original). I clicked on a link to get to this page for a recipe, so hoping that I wasn’t brought here to click on yet, another link to get to the actual recipe. I think your dish sounds delicious, I just wish I could find where the actual recipe is located.
I know, they are having trouble with the site so they are working on it!
There is no recipe!!! If you could list it here in the comments that would at least help out a little!! Please and Thank You!!
Délicieuse
Cannot find it anymore on link
Please send it to me-
lots of great pics but I don’t see a recipe…
Click the link for the recipe on Swerve Sweetener.
These look delish! Will have to try them soon!
Sounds very tasty. I have a lot of sage in the garden. I think I’ll give this a try. I have a good butternut soup recipe that uses sage and sausage. This may work in it too!
Looks like a great breakfast!!!
