Why This Recipe Is So Loved

This sausage is flavorful and juicy without any preservatives or additives. Making it at home lets you control the spices and ingredients. It’s an easy way to enjoy a classic breakfast favorite any time.

Chef Tips

- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the sausage reaches 160°F for safety.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Turn the sausages halfway through cooking for even browning.

Directions

Heat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lining a baking sheet with foil to make cleanup easier. In a bowl, mix together the ground pork with sage, salt, paprika, marjoram, pepper, onion powder, and thyme until everything is well combined. Shape the mixture into about 10 small patties and arrange them on the foil-lined sheet. Pop the tray into the oven and bake the patties for 15 minutes. Then, flip them over and continue cooking for another 10 minutes or so, until they’re cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 160°F (74°C). Let them rest for a minute or two before serving.

Best Serving Ideas

Serve these sausages alongside scrambled eggs and toast for a hearty breakfast. They also work great chopped into breakfast burritos or added to a skillet with potatoes and veggies.

How To Store For Later

Store cooked sausages in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can freeze them for up to 2 months—just thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
