Ingredients You’ll Need & Notes
Please check the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact quantities and detailed instructions (scroll down).
In a perfect world, I would make these Easy Eggless Salmon Patties with fresh salmon leftovers, but rarely do I have any, so I used canned salmon, and they turned out perfect. If you decide to use canned salmon, make sure you buy skinless and boneless wild pink salmon.
- Golden flaxseed meal: This will help to bind the mixture. This is flaxseed meal I use.
- Salmon: Canned salmon OR fresh salmon will work great. I like to use canned wild pink salmon.
- Panko crumbs: You can substitute for the same amount of Almond meal for a keto-friendly version.
- Herbs: Fresh parsley and dill for flavor!
- Veggies: Shallot and green onion.
- Seasonings: Salt, garlic powder, and black pepper.
- Lime juice
- Olive oil

- Make the Flaxseed Egg
Add flaxseed meal and water to a small bowl and stir. Let rest for 5 minutes to thicken.
- Prepare the Salmon Mixture
Flake the salmon apart in a medium bowl. Add almond meal, parsley, shallot, green onion, salt, garlic powder, dill, black pepper, lime juice, and the flaxseed mixture. Mix until well incorporated.
- Form into Patties
I use a ½ cup measuring cup to portion the mixture and to make sure all the patties are the same size.
- Cook
Heat olive oil over medium heat in a nonstick skillet. Fry the patties for 4- 5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Serve with cilantro lime cauliflower rice, if desired.
