Apple Maple Turkey Burgers with Maple-Dijon Sauce

I am on such a burger kick. I have a slew of slew of new recipes and this one was so unique I had to give it a try. Sounds a bit odd and I had to buy some of the ingredients just for this recipe. They came together super fast, no chopping which I always like too.

DO you have any burgers that are out of the ordinary? I am always on the hunt for some new recipes to add to my collection

VERDICT

These had a really different, unique flavor. I really liked them for something different. They were very juicy and I really liked the sauce....A LOT! They could have used some lettuce or something to make the picture look better because they dont look so hot, but seriously they are really delicious. The hint of bacon with the hint of apples really comes through.
