Shellfish Free Whole30 Everything-Seasoned Pork Breakfast Patties
These savory breakfast patties are the kind of morning upgrade that makes you actually want to get out of bed. Ground pork gets loaded with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and a double hit of garlic and onion — both dried minced and powdered — so every bite is packed with that bold, everything-bagel-style flavor you love. Avocado oil gives them a gorgeous, deep golden crust in the skillet without any fuss or fancy equipment. Because everything here is made from whole, straightforward ingredients, you never have to squint at a label wondering what's hiding inside — no mystery fillers, no allergen surprises. The thumb-indent trick keeps the patties flat as they cook, so you get even browning all the way across rather than a domed, unevenly cooked center. They come together fast, cook in two simple batches, and hit 160°F right on cue for a breakfast that's as reliable as it is delicious. Meal prep a batch on Sunday and your whole week of mornings is basically handled.

- 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
- ¼ tsp garlic powder

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.
