Tempeh Breakfast Sausage Patties Recipe

  • 1 (8 ounce) package tempeh, grated
  • 1/4 cup tamari
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed, or more to taste
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons dried sage
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, or as needed
  1. Combine tempeh, tamari, garlic, sage, paprika, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in a saucepan. Simmer, stirring tempeh frequently, until completely reduced, about 7 minutes.
  2. Stir flour into tempeh mixture. Let cool in the saucepan until safe to handle, about 15 minutes. Shape into 2-inch patties.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and grease with olive oil. Pan-fry the patties until well-browned, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
