Crispy Air Fryer Salmon Cakes

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Air Fryer Salmon Cakes.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your air fryer to a sizzling 400°F (200°C) for about 10 minutes—this will ensure your salmon cakes get that perfect crispy exterior.

2. Step 2

   While the air fryer warms up, grab a mixing bowl and whisk together a delightful blend of egg, mayonnaise, fresh parsley, chervil, dill, chives, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, seafood seasoning, and a pinch of salt.

3. Step 3

   Make sure everything is well combined for a burst of flavor in every bite.

4. Step 4

   Next, gently fold in the panko bread crumbs, stirring until they’re evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

5. Step 5

   Now, it’s time to add the star of the show: fresh salmon! Break it into smaller pieces as you fold it into the mixture, being careful not to overmix.

6. Step 6

   Once everything is combined, shape the mixture into four equal-sized cakes, perfect for sharing or enjoying all by yourself.

7. Step 7

   To prevent any sticking, line your air fryer basket with perforated parchment paper—this little trick makes cleanup a breeze! Place the salmon cakes in the basket and let them cook for 8 minutes, flipping them halfway through to achieve that golden-brown crispiness on both sides.

8. Step 8

   When they’re done, serve your delicious salmon cakes immediately, perhaps alongside a refreshing side salad or your favorite dipping sauce.

9. Step 9

   Enjoy the delightful flavors and the satisfaction of a homemade meal!.
