Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional for a spicy kick)
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage or 1 teaspoon dried sage
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, maple syrup, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, and sage. Mix everything together until well combined.
- Take a small amount of the mixture and form it into a patty. Repeat until all the mixture is shaped into patties.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd them.
- Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, or until they are nicely browned. Flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side, ensuring that the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- Once cooked, remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
