Healthy gluten free turkey burgers
High protein, healthy replacement for the greasy burger!
Ingredients:
1 pound ground turkey
2 tablespoons seasoned gluten free bread crumbs
I use Canyon Bakehouse gluten free bread and lightly toast it before using my Magic Bullet to chop it up prior (make sure its cooled and dry before blending/chopping)
1 clove garlic minced
2 tablespoons fine chopped onions
1 Jalapeno fine chopped (optional for some extra kick)
1 Teaspoon seasoning salt
1/8 Teaspoon black pepper
1 Teaspoon coconut aminos or Soy sauce (I prefer to use a soy free substitute)

1 Egg
1/2 cup (roughly) Gluten Free flour for dusting (I mix tapioca starch and brown rice flour)
Just enough to dust and I use on my hands to help form the patties so they don’t stick.
Recipe Instructions:
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl (minus the flour for dusting)
- Divide the mix into 4 parts (to make 4 patties).
- Dust your hands with the flour mix (may need a helper) and form the patties, this will make it much easier as turkey tends to be sticky. Make sure to have a light dusting around the whole patty as this will create a delicious crust.
- Cook in an oiled skillet (won’t hold up on a BBQ) – I use Earth Balance Soy Free butter replacement. You can use the oil of your choice I just find it gives a better brown and more flavour. You could also use butter if you eat dairy.
Cook until internal temperature reaches 180F – I usually sacrifice one to be sure its fully cooked through as I don’t have a cooking thermometer. Roughly 8-10 minutes per side when making thicker burgers like I do.
To make an extra healthy version of this burger you can see I simply eat these on an iceberg lettuce bun (as pictured) with your choice of toppings.
An addition that I like to make is a simple Sriracha Mayo topping.
For my soy free version you simply mix avocado mayo with Sriracha until the desired heat amount is reached.
