Turkey Free Whole30 Everything-Seasoned Pork Breakfast Patties
These savory breakfast patties are packed with the bold, toasty flavor of everything seasoning — sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion — pressed right into juicy ground pork before hitting a hot skillet. The result is a deeply golden, crispy-edged patty that smells incredible and tastes even better. For anyone navigating a morning protein that skips poultry entirely, ground pork is a satisfying and flavorful anchor that holds up beautifully to this spice blend. A quick thumb indent in the center of each patty keeps them flat and even as they cook, which means consistent browning every single time. Avocado oil brings a clean, high-heat sear that locks in the juices without any off flavors. These come together with minimal fuss — just mix, press, and pan-fry — making them a genuinely easy win on a busy morning. Serve them straight from the skillet while they're hot and crackling for the best possible bite.

4 servings
- 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.
