These savory breakfast patties are packed with everything-bagel-style flavor — sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic, and onion — all pressed into juicy ground pork rounds that cook up golden and satisfying in a single skillet. For anyone navigating the hunger and nutritional demands that come with nursing, having a protein-rich, real-food breakfast ready in minutes is genuinely a lifesaver. The ingredient list is clean and straightforward, with no fillers, added sugars, or mystery additives to second-guess. Avocado oil keeps the cook simple and the fat profile solid, which matters when your body is working overtime. The patties come together with just a quick hand-mix and a thumb press, so you're not spending precious energy on complicated prep. Make a double batch and reheat throughout the week for a fast, nourishing start to the morning that actually keeps you full.

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.
