Keto Salmon Patties
I love salmon patties! They are such an easy and inexpensive dinner that is always sure to please. I usually use a Paleo recipe doing almond flour and sweet potato. Lots of recipes use crushed pork rinds in place of breadcrumbs, but I have never used pork rinds so I wanted to find a substitute. This recipe uses a combination of almond flour and coconut flour. Now, before you think about just using one let me explain why both is necessary for this recipe. The almond flour is a good course binder and it does help create the crispy texture when they are fried. However, alone it doesn’t absorb all of the moisture and without it these patties are still delicious but they simply fall apart. So, don’t substitute anything else stick with the combination for the best results. This is a great full proof recipe! Enjoy! ~ Tiffany♥
INGREDIENTS
- 6 ounces of Salmon, I use my leftover salmon from the previous meal
- 1 small jalapeƱo, seeded and diced
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onion
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 egg
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 2 teaspoons Old Bay, or your favorite Cajun seasoning
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
METHOD
- In a mixing bowl combine all of the salmon patty ingredients and mix until well combined.
- All the mixture to rest for 5-10 minutes so the coconut flour can absorb any extra moisture. If you have excess moisture allow the mixture to sit a little longer in the refrigerator.
- Using a 2 inch scoop, scoop the mixture out into 5 equal patties and pat out. See video for a helpful tip.
- Place the patties in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.
- Heat a large skillet to medium heat and add 3-4 tablespoons of oil.
- Carefully slide the patties into the hot oil. Cook 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from heat and sit on napkins to absorb an additional oil.
- Enjoy with a low carb Jalapeno Ranch or Tarter Sauce!
