Chicken Free Whole30 Everything-Seasoned Pork Breakfast Patties
These savory breakfast patties are packed with the bold, toasty flavor of everything seasoning — sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic, and onion — pressed into juicy ground pork rounds that cook up golden and crisp in a hot skillet. If your mornings usually revolve around poultry-based sausage, this is a satisfying switch that keeps things completely bird-free without sacrificing any of that hearty, savory breakfast energy. The blend of dried minced garlic and onion alongside their powdered counterparts creates a deep, layered flavor that tastes far more complex than the short ingredient list suggests. A thumb indent in the center of each patty is a small but smart trick that keeps them flat and ensures even cooking all the way through. Avocado oil gives the exterior a gorgeous sear while staying compliant with Whole30 guidelines, so there's no need to reach for anything processed or off-plan. Eight portioned patties means you can meal prep a batch and reheat throughout the week, making clean mornings genuinely easy. These are the kind of patties that make you forget you're eating within any rules at all.

4 servings
- 1 lb ground pork
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
- 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.
