Bacon-Molasses Breakfast Sausage

These homemade bacon and molasses breakfast sausages offer a sophisticated balance of smoky, sweet, and savoury notes. By combining lean pork mince with finely chopped bacon and a touch of pimentón, you create a protein-rich morning meal that avoids the hidden additives often found in shop-bought varieties. The addition of deep molasses and earthy sage provides a traditional farmhouse flavour that pairs beautifully with poached eggs or grilled tomatoes.

As a diabetes-friendly option, this recipe allows for complete control over the sugar content while delivering maximum satisfaction. Preparing the sausage meat in advance is an excellent time-saving strategy for busy mornings, as the mixture can be kept in the fridge or frozen until needed. Simply fry the patties until crisp and golden for a comforting, nutritious start to your day.

Ingredients for Bacon-Molasses Breakfast Sausage

  • 230g pork mince

  • 110g bacon, finely chopped

  • 1 teaspoon molasses

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (pimentón)

  • 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

  • 1/4 teaspoons dried sage

  • 1/4 teaspoons black pepper

How to make Bacon-Molasses Breakfast Sausage

Stir together the pork, bacon, molasses, smoked paprika, brown sugar, salt, sage, and black pepper until well combined.

Heat up a skillet over medium heat and cook a small spoonful of the sausage for a couple of minutes on each side. Taste and adjust the seasonings, if necessary.

Once you're satisfied with the flavour balance, refrigerate the mixture for an hour for the flavours to come together. To cook the sausage, form it into 2-inch-wide, 1/4-inch-thick patties and fry over medium-high heat until both sides are brown and crisp, 5 minutes per side.

The sausage will keep in the refrigerator for a week uncooked, and it can also be frozen uncooked for 3 months.
