My air fryer salmon patties use canned salmon to create patties that are golden on the outside, juicy on the inside, and bursting with fresh flavor.

Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees F.
In a large bowl, mix the canned salmon, panko, egg, green onion, red pepper, dill, dijon mustard, garlic powder, and salt until everything is fully combined.
Form the mixture into 4 patties, pressing each firmly into shape.
Add the patties to the air fryer and cook them for about 8 minutes, flipping them once halfway through.

Drain the canned salmon really well before mixing it with other ingredients to avoid excess moisture.
Press the patties firmly to shape them. This helps them hold together better during the cooking process.
For extra crispiness, lightly spray the patties with cooking spray before placing them in the air fryer.
If using premade frozen salmon patties, increase the cooking time to about 12 minutes.
Store leftover patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
