Simple to make, yet bursting with flavor, these patties combine the savory richness of ground beef with the aromatic notes of rosemary, thyme, and sage. Not only are they nutrient-dense, but they also provide a deliciously satisfying way to kickstart your morning.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Beef Mixture:
- In a large bowl, place the ground beef.
- Add the rosemary, thyme, sage, and salt. Make sure the herbs are finely chopped if using fresh ones.
- Using your hands or a spoon, mix the beef and herbs thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
2. Form the Patties:
- 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.
3. Preheat the Cooking Surface:
- 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.
4. Cook the Patties:
- Once the skillet is hot and the oil is shimmering, place the beef patties in the skillet. Be sure not to overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
- Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. The internal temperature should reach at least 160°F (71°C) for well-done.
5. Serve:
- Remove the patties from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the herb-infused breakfast beef patties warm. They are perfect on their own or paired with eggs, toast, or a fresh salad for a complete breakfast.

Herb-infused breakfast beef patties with coconut oil FAQ:

What is the cooking time for these beef patties?

Cook the beef patties for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side over medium heat until the internal temperature reaches at least 160°F (71°C) for well-done.

How should I store leftover beef patties?

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.

Can I substitute ground beef with another type of meat?

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.

What size should the patties be?

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.

What if I don’t have coconut oil?

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.
