Here’s a super simple Low-Carb 3-Ingredient Salmon Patties recipe—fast, healthy, and perfect for a quick meal.
Low-Carb 3-Ingredient Salmon Patties
Ingredients (4 patties)
- 1 can (14–15 oz / 400 g) salmon, drained and flaked
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup almond flour (or coconut flour for variation)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: 1–2 tbsp chopped onion or fresh herbs for extra flavor
Instructions
- Mix the ingredients
In a bowl, combine flaked salmon, eggs, almond flour, salt, and pepper. Mix until it holds together. Add onion or herbs if using. - Form the patties
Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties. - Cook the patties
- Heat 1–2 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Cook patties 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve
Serve hot with a side salad, low-carb veggies, or a dollop of mayonnaise or tartar sauce.
💡 Tips:
- You can freeze uncooked patties for later use.
- For extra crispiness, coat patties lightly in almond flour before frying.
- This recipe works with fresh salmon, too—just cook and flake it first.
If you want, I can also give a baked version that uses the same 3 ingredients but is hands-off and even lower in fat.
