Apple Turkey Burgers with Brie
These juicy apple turkey burgers are topped with melted brie, caramelized shallots, and crisp slices of tart Granny Smith apple for a savory-sweet combination that's packed with flavor. Shredded apple is mixed directly into the patties, keeping them incredibly tender and moist with every bite.
Finish them with the easy 4-ingredient Dijon sauce for the perfect tangy drizzle—it's also delicious served alongside fries or crispy smashed potatoes. Looking for a Paleo or Whole30-friendly option? Simply leave off the brie, and you'll still have a flavorful, satisfying burger.

Instructions
Whisk the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
Heat half of the oil in a pan over medium heat.
Add the sliced shallots and cook slowly tossing frequently until they are nicely browned. This takes about 15 minutes. Once browned moved to a paper towel lined plate.
Meanwhile, combine turkey, grated apple, Dijon, Thyme, Sage, Salt and Pepper. Mix with hands to combine but do not overwork the mix. Make 4 burger patties.
Add remaining oil to pan and allow it to heat up.
Add burgers to pan and cook for 4 minutes covered.
Flip burgers and cook for 2 minutes then divide onions evenly over the 4 burgers.
Add brie slices to top of onions, cover and cook about 2-3 minutes longer or until brie is nicely melted. Burger temperature should read 165° at the thickest part.
Remove to plate and add apple slices to top of burgers.
Enjoy!
