Ingredients
  

  • 15 ounces Chicken of the Sea Pink Salmon drained; or use a 14.75 ounce can of pink salmon with bones removed and drained
  • ½ cup Fine Breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup Milk
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon Black Pepper

  • Add salmon to a mixing bowl and flake with a fork.
  • Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and mix well.
  • Form into patties approximately 4 inches in diameter.
  • Spray the bottom of the air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking. Add a single layer of patties in the air fryer basket.
  • Set the temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for 8-10 minutes until they reach a golden brown, crispy exterior. If they are not browning, lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Remove from the basket and set on a paper towel lined plate. Eat plain or serve with your favorite sauce.
