Instructions:

- Divide the beef mixture into equal portions (about 8 to 10 patties depending on the size preferred).
- Shape each portion into a round patty, pressing gently to flatten them to your desired thickness.
- Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add the coconut oil and allow it to melt and coat the surface of the skillet evenly.

Herb-infused breakfast beef patties with coconut oil FAQ:

Store any leftover beef patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, you can freeze them for up to 3 months.
Yes, you can substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken, though cooking times may vary slightly. Ensure the internal temperature still reaches 165°F (74°C) for poultry.
The beef mixture can be divided into 8 to 10 equal portions. Shape the patties to your desired thickness, typically around 1/2 inch thick for optimal cooking.
If you don't have coconut oil, you can use other cooking oils such as olive oil, vegetable oil, or butter. Adjust the cooking temperature slightly if using butter to prevent burning.
Cooking Tips:
- Ensure the ground beef you choose is 80/20% to maintain juiciness and flavor in your patties.
- For a more even distribution of herbs, finely chop the rosemary, thyme, and sage before mixing them into the beef.
- When forming the patties, make them slightly thinner in the center. This helps them cook more evenly.
- Let the patties rest for a few minutes after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute, making them more flavorful and moist.
- Using coconut oil not only adds a subtle flavor but also helps to cook the patties evenly without sticking to the pan.
