Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground Chicken
  • 1 Apple, grated
  • 1 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 1 tsp Thyme, dried or fresh
  • ¼ tsp Garlic Powder
  • ¼ tsp Onion Powder
  • ½ tsp Sea Salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix everything together in a large bowl and then form into 8-10 patties. Place on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, then flip and bake for an additional 15 minutes.

Notes

Make ahead and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
These are a great option to make a double or triple batch of and then freeze for later. To freeze, lay the cooked patties on a baking sheet or dish and freeze, then remove and put into a freezer-safe container or bag. This way you'll easily be able to get 1-2 at a time. Simply reheat in the microwave or on the stove.
Substitutions: Replace the ground chicken with ground pork or turkey. Don't have thyme? Try some dried sage instead!
