Keto Salmon Patties are quick and easy to make using canned salmon and a few basic ingredients that you probably have on hand. They’re ready in about 15 minutes so they are perfect for lunch or a light dinner.
Keto Coleslaw is a versatile side dish that does double duty this week. At lunch with these yummy Keto Salmon Patties, and for dinner with Instant Pot Ribs. It’s almost as if I planned it that way. 😉
How to make Keto Salmon Patties:
Combine the salmon, almond flour, garlic, egg and seasonings together in a large bowl.
Divide the mixture into 3 large or 6 small portions and shape into patties.
Heat 2 Tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon patties and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
Carefully flip the patties over and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown.
Serve with Keto Coleslaw, or side of your choice, lemon wedges and Garlic Aioli for dipping (if desired)
To make the Garlic Aioli:
Whisk together all ingredients in a bowl.
Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes before serving. Can be made ahead, and can easily be doubled or tripled. Full recipe for Super Easy Garlic Aioli – serves 12
Can Keto Salmon Patties be frozen?
Yes, but it is best to freeze them before they are cooked. Then simply defrost and cook as directed above. Then they are crispy and fresh when served.
Can I substitute tuna?
Yes, of course you can!
Recipe Tips & Tricks
- Reserve the drained water/oil from the salmon. If your salmon patties seem to be dry, add some of the liquid until you get the desired consistency.
- I kept my salmon patties as simple as possible. Feel free to add chopped bell pepper or other vegetables if you like.
