Mix together. In a large bowl, use your hands to mix together the ground chicken, maple syrup, salt, dried sage, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, black pepper, and nutmeg, until well combined.
Form balls. Use a cookie scoop or your hands to form 12 balls.
Cook. Heat the oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add six balls to the pan and use your fingers to press them flat (wet your fingers to prevent them from sticking). Cook the patties for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Repeat with a second batch, and add a splash more oil if needed.
Serve. Transfer the breakfast sausages to a serving plate and enjoy!
