Ingredients:
- 1/2 pound ground pork
- 1/2 pound turkey sausage, crumbled
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup crackers, crushed
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Preparations:
- Begin by thoroughly combining all the ingredients in a mixing bowl. The mixture will include the ground pork, crumbled turkey sausage, chopped onion, minced garlic, crushed crackers, beaten eggs, and a dash of kosher salt and ground black pepper. The combination of pork and turkey sausage adds both flavor and moisture to the patties, while the onion and garlic bring depth and aroma to the mix.
- Once the ingredients are well mixed, shape the mixture into four equal-sized patties. Press gently to compact the mixture and create uniform patties.
- Preheat your air fryer to 370 degrees F using the “Air Fry” function. As the air fryer heats up, place a sheet of aluminum foil onto the drip pan to catch any drippings and make cleaning up a breeze.
- As the air fryer prompts you to “Add Food,” carefully place the pork and sausage patties onto the air fryer oven perforated pan. This setup allows the hot air to circulate around the patties, creating a crispy exterior.
- Cook the patties for about 8 minutes on one side. The air fryer’s high heat and circulating air ensure that the patties cook evenly and develop a delightful golden-brown crust.
- After the first 8 minutes, flip the patties over to cook the other side. Continue cooking for an additional 8 minutes. The total cooking time of 16 minutes ensures that the patties are cooked through and have a crispy exterior.
- Once the patties are golden brown and have reached an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, they are ready to be enjoyed.
Tips:
- For an extra kick of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the mixture before shaping the patties.
- Serve the patties with your favorite breakfast sides, such as scrambled eggs, toast, or sautéed vegetables, for a complete and satisfying meal.
