Sausage Patties in Air Fryer
If you’ve discovered the joy of the air fryer, then I’m sure you’ll agree with me – you can’t beat how easy it is to cook and bake. Beyond just the clean up, this little device also keeps my food less greasy too!
If you are trying to cook with kids distracting you, you don’t need to mess with hot grease that could injure someone.
All you have to do is mix all the ingredients for the patties together, place them in the air fryer, and let it do all the work! Walk away and it will be ready in just 10 minutes.
Low-Carb Sausage Patties
These little sausage patties are naturally keto-friendly and low-carb because they are made with just sausage, spices, and sugar-free maple syrup.
All of the spices are easy enough to find, too. You might already have them in your spice cabinet. You can change the recipe to suit your tastes; just make sure you keep the sage in it. Sage is essential for savory breakfast sausage patties.
The fennel seeds are optional. I think they make the sausage patties even more savory and tasty.
Homemade Sausage Patties
Another thing I love about making sausage patties from scratch is that I get to control how they taste.
Do you like sweeter sausage patties? Then add more sugar-free maple syrup. Do you want them not to have any sweetness at all? Leave the sugar-free maple syrup out entirely.
You can even make them extra spicy! Add red pepper flakes to the sausage patties before you cook them.
Breakfast Sausage Patties
Make extra patties and use them in your meal prep throughout the week. Eat them with a chopped salad or some tasty chaffles and eggs.
Or serve these tasty sausage patties at your next brunch. They smell so aromatic that everyone is going to love them. Add some egg loaf french toast to the table and some keto pound cake. The combination of sweet and savory flavors will be perfect for breakfast or even lunch!

You don’t have to form them into patties, either. Crumble the sausage and all the ingredients together in the skillet. Then, mix the ground sausage with scrambled eggs or sprinkle it on top of an omelet.
You can even use this exact recipe to make keto biscuits and gravy. It will taste perfect with the creamy gravy and buttery biscuits.
