How to Make Homemade Breakfast Sausage Patties…A Low-Carb Recipe

According to the Sausage Patty recipe a pound of pork with the ingredients makes 12 patties. Each serving or 2 patties equals 5.4g carbohydrates and 20.2g protein. A fourth of a pound of sausage without the rest of the ingredients has only 1.2g carbohydrates and 13.3g protein. This recipe also has maple syrup which is high carbohydrate and calories. If you want to reduce your carbs even further substitute the maple syrup with a blend of your herbs and spices. For example: Cinnamon, nutmeg or thyme, to name a few.

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
