1. Introduction
If you are looking for a quick, budget-friendly, and nutrient-dense meal prep option, these Low Carb 3-Ingredient Salmon Patties are an absolute lifesaver. Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, they deliver all the savory satisfaction of traditional fish cakes without the heavy carb load of breadcrumbs.
2. Ingredients
To keep this recipe strictly to 3 core ingredients while ensuring it stays low-carb and keto-friendly, you will need:
-
Canned Salmon: 2 cans (about 14–15 oz total), drained. (You can also use finely flaked leftover cooked salmon).
-
Eggs: 2 large eggs (acts as the primary binder).
-
Almond Flour or Grated Parmesan Cheese: 1/2 cup (This replaces traditional breadcrumbs to keep it low-carb while providing a perfect golden crust).
(Note: Salt, pepper, or a dash of dried herbs can be added to taste without counting towards the core macro ingredients).
