Air Fryer Salmon Patties

Air Fryer Salmon Patties combine flaked salmon with chopped onion, fresh dill, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and Old Bay seasoning, bound with egg and panko for a crispy exterior. These patties cook to golden brown in the air fryer, offering a moisture-retentive texture that pairs well with a squeeze of lemon. They can be served on buns, over greens, or in bowls for a versatile meal option.

Description

This recipe uses wild salmon, mixed with red onion, dill, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and Old Bay seasoning for a flavorful base. Panko breadcrumbs and eggs provide structure, and chilling the mixture before shaping helps the patties hold together during cooking. Cooking in the air fryer at 400°F crisps the exterior to a golden finish while keeping the interior tender. Flipping halfway promotes even browning.

The finished salmon patties have a balanced texture from the firm exterior and soft, flaky interior. Serving suggestions include placing them on potato buns, over a bed of greens, or in a bowl with lemon wedges to add brightness. They make a protein-rich meal or appetizer.

Optionally, a remoulade sauce made with mayonnaise, lemon juice, and capers can be prepared to accompany the patties for extra flavor.

  2. In a medium bowl combine the egg, onion, dill, mayo, mustard and Old Bay spice and mix. Add the salmon and panko and mix to combine.
  3. Freeze for 10 minutes, to help the mixture hold together. (If it’s too wet you can add another tablespoon panko)
  4. Form into 6 patties, tightly and transfer to the air fryer basket.
  5. Air fry them at 400F 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway until golden brown.
  6. Serve over a bed of greens, on potato buns or in bowls with a squeeze of lemon over the top. Makes 6 patties.

Notes

  • Serve with lemon wedges to add a fresh, bright flavor to the patties.
  • Consider making a remoulade sauce with mayo, lemon juice, and capers to enhance the dish.
