Whole30 Salmon Patties

To make these salmon patties compliant with the Whole30 program, use almond flour instead of breadcrumbs. Make sure you read your labels on whatever seasoning you choose to use.

Keto Salmon Patties

For a salmon patty that is keto and low carb friendly, use pork panko or almond flour in place of the bread crumbs. Pork panko simply is pork rinds that have been crushed into a flour consistency. You can make them yourself or you can buy them HERE.
