Apple and sausage naturally go together. Add sage, and you’ve got some standout patties. They’re freezer friendly, so I make them ahead and grab when needed. —Scarlett Elrod, Newnan, Georgia

Ingredients

1 large apple
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
3 to 4 tablespoons minced fresh sage
2 garlic cloves, minced
1-1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1-1/4 pounds lean ground turkey
6 teaspoons olive oil, divided

Directions

Peel and coarsely shred apple; place apple in a colander over a plate. Let stand 15 minutes. Squeeze and blot dry with paper towels.
In a large bowl, combine egg, parsley, sage, garlic, seasonings and apple. Add turkey; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into sixteen 2-in. patties. Place patties on waxed-paper-lined baking sheets. Refrigerate, covered, 8 hours or overnight.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium heat. In batches, cook patties 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and a thermometer reads 165°, adding more oil as needed.
