Air Fryer Salmon Patties

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 14.75oz can of salmon
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley

  or 1 tsp. dried parsley
• 2 tablespoons sour cream
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
• Dash of hot sauce

  optional
• ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ tsp. onion powder
• ¼ teaspoon dried dill weed
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ¼ teaspoon paprika
• Avocado oil cooking spray

  or any neutral tasting cooking oil spray

Instructions

• 1 Open the can of salmon and drain off the liquid into a small bowl. Reserve the
  liquid for later. If your salmon patties are a bit dry, you will use some of
  this liquid to moisten them.
• 2 Add your drained salmon into a medium sized bowl. Use a fork to mash the salmon
  into flakes, and break down any small bones. If you wish, you can remove the
  bones.
• 3 Crack your egg and add it to the bowl with the salmon. Then, add the sour cream,
  dijon mustard, lemon juice, and dash of hot sauce (if using). Mix this together
  with a fork or a small rubber spatula.
• 4 Add the panko breadcrumbs and the remaining seasonings. Fold these in using a
  rubber spatula. Test your mixture to see if it will hold together by taking some
  in your hand and pressing it together into a patty. If it is still too dry to
  hold together, add a bit of the reserved salmon liquid and test it again after
  mixing.
• 5 Once you have reached a good consistency, use a large cookie scoop to portion
  out your salmon patties. Pat them into small, flat rounds and place them on a
  lined baking sheet or plate.
• 6 Once all of your patties have been formed, spray each side with cooking spray.
• 7 Preheat your Air Fryer for at least 3 minutes to 390F. Follow your manufacturers
  instructions for this step.
• 8 Once the air fryer is preheated, remove the basket and place on a trivet or hot
  pad.
• 9 Place the salmon patties into the basket, working in batches if needed.
• 10 Cook for a total of 8-10 minutes, turning halfway through to ensure even
  browning.
• 11 Serve immediately with tartar sauce or your favorite dipping sauce. Garnish with
  additional parsley and lemon wedges, if desired.
