Breakfast Sausage Spice Blend Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons salt , leave out to make this a salt free blend
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar , or use date or coconut sugar
- 4 teaspoons rubbed sage
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons marjoram
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/4 teaspoon allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
Instructions
Make the Sausage Mixture:
- First off, make sure that you really drain the excess liquid from the beans and potatoes. If there’s too much moisture you may need more oat flour and/or flaxseed to tighten the mixture up.
- Add the black beans, quinoa, and cooked potatoes to a large mixing bowl and smash with a potato masher until almost smooth.
- Mix in the flour, spice blend, and ground flax seeds until well combined. The mixture should be the texture of playdough.
- Measure out 2 tablespoon piles on a cutting board, then form into circles that are ½ inch thick.
Oven Version (Recommended)
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Prepare 1 large or 2 small sheet pans with parchment or spray with oil.
- Bake for 10 minutes, take the sheet pan out to check on how fast they are cooking. You can leave as is or flip and bake for 10 more minutes. If they are still a little soft, bake a few minutes more.
Stove-Top Option
- Heat up a nonstick pan over medium heat, once hot add in the sausage patties.
- Depending on the size of your pan you may only cook 4. Just make sure there’s enough space in between the patties to easily flip them with a spatula.
- Flip once the bottom browns and cook until both sides are browned. Repeat until you cook all the patties.
Freeze some for later
- If you want to freeze some you can undercook them a bit, because you will finish cooking them before you serve next time. Then package in a resealable container or bag and freeze.
- Just grab the patties from the freezer and pan fry next time!
Make the Breakfast Sausage Spice Blend
- Add all the ingredients to a blender or spice grinder.
- Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Note: You can use your coffee grinder. Grind some white rice first to clean out the coffee. Then grind white rice afterwards to get it ready for coffee again.
