Coconut Free Whole30 Everything-Seasoned Pork Breakfast Patties
These savory breakfast patties are packed with bold, everything-bagel-style flavor — sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, and a hit of flaky sea salt pressed right into the ground pork before it ever hits the pan. Many store-bought breakfast sausages sneak in fillers, sweeteners, or oils that can be hard to vet, but this recipe keeps things refreshingly straightforward with a short, clean ingredient list. Avocado oil gives you a gorgeous, deep golden sear without any tropical-derived fats, so there's zero concern about coconut-derived ingredients hiding in the cooking process. The trick of pressing a small indent into the center of each patty before cooking is a small step that makes a real difference, keeping them flat and evenly browned rather than puffed and uneven. They cook up in two quick batches and come out juicy, crispy-edged, and seriously satisfying. Whether you're meal-prepping for the week or pulling together a fast weekday breakfast, these patties deliver the kind of savory, herby punch that makes the whole kitchen smell incredible.

- 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.
