Beef Free Whole30 Everything-Seasoned Pork Breakfast Patties
These savory breakfast patties are packed with bold, everything-bagel-inspired flavor — sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic, onion, and flaky sea salt all pressed into juicy ground pork for a morning meal that feels anything but boring. Because the protein here is entirely pork-based, there's no need to scrutinize labels for hidden beef fillers or worry about mixed-meat blends that can sneak into store-bought patties. The spice mix comes together in one bowl with pantry staples, and a quick press of your thumb into each patty keeps them flat and even as they cook. Avocado oil gives the exterior a gorgeous, deep golden crust in the skillet while keeping everything compliant with clean-eating guidelines. A simple temperature check at 160°F is all you need to know they're perfectly done — no guesswork, no fuss. These are the kind of patties that make you actually look forward to getting out of bed on a weekday.

- ½ tsp poppy seeds
- 1 tsp dried minced garlic
- 1 tsp dried minced onion
- ¾ tsp flaky sea salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion, garlic powder, onion powder, flaky sea salt, and black pepper. Mix with your hands until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the meat, about 30 seconds — stop as soon as the mixture is uniform to avoid overworking.

Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions (about 2 oz each). Press each portion into a round patty roughly 3 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick, making a slight indent in the center of each with your thumb to help them cook flat.
