1 Add the ground turkey, minced garlic, maple syrup, sage, thyme, cumin, ginger, allspice, cayenne, salt, and black pepper to a large bowl. Mix everything thoroughly with your hands until the seasonings are evenly distributed.

2 Scatter the blueberries over the turkey mixture and work them in carefully so they remain as intact as possible.

3 Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions, then shape each portion into a patty about 1/3 inch thick. Press any exposed blueberries gently into the meat so they do not slip out or burst free during cooking.

4 Warm 1 teaspoon coconut oil or olive oil in a nonstick skillet set over medium heat. Arrange the turkey patties in the heated skillet.

5 Cook the patties for about 5 minutes on the first side. Turn them over and continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes, until they are fully cooked.

6 For each serving, place two patties on a plate alongside 2 fried eggs. Finish the sausage patties with a very small drizzle of maple syrup and serve. The recipe makes 4 servings, with 2 patties each.
