Ingredients

  • 2 cans 14.75 oz each salmon, drained and flaked
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs or gluten-free breadcrumbs
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup finely chopped onion

Instructions

  • Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine salmon, breadcrumbs, eggs, onion, parsley, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt.
  • Shape Patties: Form the mixture into 8 evenly sized patties, about 1/2-inch thick.
  • Cook: Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry patties for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve: Drain on paper towels and serve warm with lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or your favorite sides.

Pro Tips

  • For extra crispiness, coat the patties in additional breadcrumbs before frying.
  • To bake, place patties on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush with oil, and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • For air frying, spray patties with oil and cook at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway.
