These savory breakfast patties are the kind of morning upgrade that makes you actually look forward to getting out of bed. Ground pork gets loaded with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, and a hit of flaky sea salt — basically everything-bagel energy packed into a sizzling skillet patty. The whole mixture comes together in seconds with your hands, and a quick thumb indent in the center of each patty keeps them flat and even as they cook. Avocado oil gives the exterior a deep, golden sear that's genuinely hard to beat. For anyone navigating a grain-free morning routine, these are a natural fit — there's no filler, no starch, and no hidden rice-based binders anywhere in the mix. They cook up in two quick batches and hit 160°F without any fuss, so you get a juicy, well-seasoned patty every single time. Pair them with eggs, roasted vegetables, or just eat them straight off the plate — no judgment.

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.
