These savory breakfast patties are packed with bold, everything-bagel-inspired flavor — sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, and a hit of flaky sea salt all pressed right into the ground pork before it ever hits the pan. The result is a crispy-edged, deeply golden patty that tastes like way more effort than it actually is. Pre-seasoned breakfast sausage from the store often hides additives, fillers, or flavoring blends that can be hard to vet, so mixing your own from scratch puts you fully in control of every ingredient. Avocado oil gives the patties a beautiful sear without any unwanted flavors, and the thumb-indent trick keeps them cooking flat and even all the way through. These are completely free from tree nuts of any kind — every ingredient is straightforward and easy to verify at a glance. Whether you're meal-prepping for the week or throwing together a quick morning plate, these patties reheat beautifully and pair with just about anything you've got going on the side.

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.
