Special Precautions and Tips:
- Make sure the ground turkey is cooked through before consuming.
- If you don't have maple syrup, you can substitute honey or agave nectar.
- You can adjust the seasonings to your liking. For example, you can add more sage or black pepper for a more intense flavor.
- If you're making links, use a sausage stuffer to fill them.
- Let the sausage rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, making the sausage more tender.
