PALEO WHOLE30 APPLE CINNAMON BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

I know cinnamon and turkey don’t seem like a natural fit, but please trust me and try it! I tried these many times with different spice combinations and this was the best one. I did one with no cinnamon and chives and the apple was undetectable, then I did cinnamon and chives and that was just weird. So I finally just did cinnamon and it pairs perfectly with the apple and I’ve made them many times since then. I actually use apple pie spice in these, but cinnamon will work the same. Apple pie spice has some other spices like nutmeg, ginger and cloves.

And since we’re putting cinnamon in turkey lets take it farther and talk about how good nut butter is on these!! Warm them up and top them with almond, cashew, or sunbutter. Wow- so, so good!

I know eggs can get old on a Whole30 and there are many people who can’t have eggs. These are such a great option to switch things up in the morning. Or if you’re not sick of eggs, these go great with them. Another bonus is they are nut free. Unlike meatballs that use almond flour and eggs, these are just mixed with the spices and baked. They don’t dry out at all and stay so juicy.

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 1/2 apple, skin-on, grated (1/3 cup)
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons apple pie spice or cinnamon

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350° and line a sheet tray with parchment paper. Set aside. 
2. Add the turkey to a medium bowl and add grated apple, salt, and apple pie spice. Combine well until all the apple is mixed in. Divide evenly into 8 pieces and patty them out to 1/3 inch thick. Place them on the sheet tray and bake for 20 minutes.
