Ingredients
- 15 oz canned boneless skinless salmon (drained)
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 2 green onions (minced)
- 1 tsp fresh dill (chopped)
- 1 tsp fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tsp salt (or to taste)
- 1/2 tsp pepper (or to taste)
- 2 tbsp butter (for frying)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained canned salmon, almond flour, eggs, minced green onions, fresh dill, fresh parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
- Form the Patties: Using a medium-sized cookie scoop or spoon, portion out the mixture and form it into small patties. Press them gently to ensure they hold together.
- Fry the Patties: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter is melted, place the patties into the skillet, ensuring they don’t overcrowd. Cook for 3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Once cooked, remove the patties from the skillet and serve immediately.
Notes
- Make Ahead Tip: These salmon patties can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the air fryer or oven to retain their crispiness.

Substitute for Almond Flour: If you’re not a fan of almond flour, coconut flour or flaxmeal can be used as an alternative. However, you may need to adjust the quantity.
- Add Variations: Feel free to experiment with adding other herbs or spices, such as garlic powder, paprika, or lemon zest, to customize the flavor to your liking.
