In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, sage, thyme, garlic powder, smoked paprika, maple syrup, salt, and freshly cracked pepper. Use your hands to mix everything until the turkey is evenly seasoned.

Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, portion the turkey mixture into equal portions, then shape each into a patty. Make sure the patties are flattened and about 3 inches wide, as they will shrink and thicken during cooking.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Once the skillet is hot, place the sausage patties in, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 3-5 minutes on each side, or until the outside is browned and the patties are cooked through.

Remove the patties from the skillet and serve hot. Enjoy your flavorful, homemade Maple Sage Breakfast Sausage!
