These grain-free salmon patties have been a hit in my home. They go nicely with air-fried or roasted vegetables. When we’re having a busy week, having these made up ahead of time makes it easy to get in a quick, nutritious meal.
Tips
If you’d like to freeze these, be sure to freeze the patties in a thick freezer bag or container so the salmon smell doesn’t transfer onto your other foods.
Be sure to buy wild-caught salmon. It’s full of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. The healthy omega-3 fats help protect against cancer and osteoporosis. Salmon also improves skin, brain function, and heart health, among many other things. You can read more about the nutritional benefits of salmon at Dr. Axe’s website.
I add some of my favorite seasonings to these salmon patties: herbamare and nutritional yeast. If you don’t have those, feel free to leave them out or use your favorite seasonings. Herbamare is an organic seasoning salt made from sea salt and organic herbs. The nutritional yeast adds a slightly cheesy flavor.

Appreciate this recipe–can’t wait to try it. We like salmon patties, but always have to scramble to substitute the grain portion, last time used oats, but will try this.

Did you use two of the 14 or 15 oz cans or two of the smaller cans? I’m guessing the larger cans but I’d like to be sure. I love salmon patties and this looks yummy.
MamaShire
Hi Karen, yes, I use the 14 3/4 oz cans.
