Keto Air Fryer Salmon Cakes with Sriracha Mayo

Keto Air Fryer Salmon Cakes with Sriracha Mayo

Salmon cakes made in the air fryer can certainly be keto-friendly if you just tweak a few ingredients. They make a great dinner or you can serve them atop a salad for a delicious lunch. The mixture can get a little sticky so I spray my hands with cooking spray when handling, and I use a small silicone spatula to help get them off the plate and into the fryer.

Ingredients

Sriracha Mayo

  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha

Salmon Cakes

  • 1 pound skinless salmon fillets, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/3 cup almond flour
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 green onion, coarsely chopped
  • 1 ½ teaspoons seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
  • cooking spray
  • 1 pinch seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®) (Optional)

Directions

Step 1
Make Sriracha mayo: Whisk together mayonnaise and Sriracha in a small bowl. Place 1 tablespoon Sriracha mayo in the bowl of a food processor and refrigerate the rest until ready to use.

Step 2
Prepare salmon cakes: Add salmon, almond flour, egg, green onion, and 1 1/2 teaspoons seafood seasoning to Sriracha mayo in the bowl of a food processor; pulse quickly for 4 to 5 seconds until ingredients are just combined, but small chunks of salmon remain. (Do not overprocess as the mixture will become mushy.)

Step 3
Line a plate with waxed paper and spray hands with cooking spray. Form salmon mixture into 8 small patties; transfer to the plate. Place in the refrigerator until chilled and firm, about 15 minutes.

Step 4
Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.

Step 5
Remove salmon cakes from refrigerator. Mist both sides with cooking spray and gently place in the air fryer basket, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.

Step 6
Cook in the preheated air fryer for 6 to 8 minutes. Place on a serving platter and serve with remaining Sriracha mayo and a light sprinkling of Old Bay seasoning.

Tips

Keep salmon cakes warm in an oven on the lowest setting while air frying remaining cakes.
