Gluten Free Whole30 Everything-Seasoned Pork Breakfast Patties
Breakfast patties that actually taste like something — that's the promise here, and the everything-bagel-inspired spice blend delivers in a big way. Ground pork gets loaded with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, and a hit of flaky sea salt before hitting a hot skillet in avocado oil, so every bite is savory, a little nutty, and deeply satisfying. The technique is simple but smart: a thumb indent in the center of each patty keeps them flat as they cook, and waiting until they release naturally from the pan guarantees that gorgeous golden-brown crust. Store-bought breakfast sausage often sneaks in fillers, binders, or seasonings with hidden grain-based additives, so making your own from scratch is the cleanest way to know exactly what's on your plate. These patties are naturally free of gluten-containing ingredients — no breadcrumbs, no wheat-based fillers, just pork and spices doing all the work. They're great straight from the skillet, but they also reheat well, making them a solid option for prepping ahead on a busy week.

4 servings
- 1 lb ground pork
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
- ½ tsp poppy seeds

- 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.
