• 1 lb Lean ground turkey, beef, or lean ground meat of choice
• 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp Onion powder
• 1 tsp Poultry seasoning (or 1/2 dried sage + 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
• 1/2-3/4 tsp Salt (or to taste)
• 1/4-1/2 tsp Pepper (or to taste)
• 2 tbs Low sugar maple syrup (or honey)
• 1 large Egg white

Optional Seasonings:

• 1 tsp Dried fennel seeds
• Pinch Ground nutmeg or ginger
• 1/2 tsp Paprika

Method

In a small bowl, mix all of the ingredients except for the ground turkey.

Place the ground turkey in a large bowl. Add spice mixture and mix by hand until well incorporated.

Heat a skillet coated with nonstick spray over medium-low heat. Form meat mixture into eight patties using a 1/4-cup measuring scoop. Cook 3-4 patties at a time in the pan over medium low heat. Cover the pan with a lid when cooking the patties for about 2-3 minutes on each side. Be careful not to overcook. Add 2-3 tbs water if the pan gets too hot, or outside is done before inside is. Serve warm or cold with low sugar maple syrup if desired
