In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, nutritional yeast, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley.
Crack the egg into the bowl and mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated. The mixture should be smooth and hold together.
Divide the turkey mixture into 4 equal parts, shaping each into a patty about 1-inch thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the patties to the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches if necessary.
Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are nicely browned and cooked through with an internal temperature reaching 165Β°F (74Β°C).
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the dairy-free cheesy turkey patties with your favorite dairy-free condiments and side dishes.
