Ingredients
•
aluminum foil
•
1 serving cooking spray
•
1 pound lean ground pork
•
2 tablespoons maple syrup
•
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
•
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh parsley
•
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
•
1 teaspoon salt
•
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
•
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
•
1/4 teaspoon ground paprika
Directions
1
Set one oven rack to the middle position and another one 6 inches from the broiler. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray lightly with cooking spray.
2
Combine ground pork, maple syrup, garlic, parsley, marjoram, salt, pepper, thyme, and paprika in a bowl; mix gently until well combined. Divide mixture into 6 equal portions and form into patties. Place on the prepared baking sheet and press down with the palm of your hand to flatten.
3
Bake in the preheated oven on the middle rack for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and turn on the oven's broiler on low.
4
Broil sausage patties on the top rack until they are golden brown, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
