Indulge in the irresistible flavor of Keto Salmon Croquettes, a low-carb twist on a classic favorite that's perfect for quick dinners or elegant appetizers. Made with tender, flaky canned salmon, almond flour, and a blend of fresh parsley, green onions, and zesty lemon, these croquettes are seasoned to perfection with garlic and onion powder for a savory kick. With just 15 minutes of prep time and a quick pan-fry in olive oil, they transform into golden, crispy patties that are satisfying yet light. Gluten-free and keto-friendly, these delightful croquettes pair beautifully with a squeeze of lemon or a creamy keto sauce, making them a go-to option for effortless healthy eating.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the canned salmon, making sure to flake it into fine pieces.
Add the almond flour, beaten egg, mayonnaise, dijon mustard, and lemon zest to the bowl with the salmon.
Mix in the chopped parsley, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Stir all the ingredients together until well combined and the mixture holds together.
Divide and shape the salmon mixture into 8 small patties or 4 larger ones, depending on your preference.
Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large non-stick skillet.
Once the oil is hot, add the salmon croquettes to the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook the croquettes for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve the croquettes immediately with a wedge of lemon or your favorite keto-friendly sauce.
