Servings: 6 servings
Calories: 93kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cans of canned tuna 5 oz cans, drained well
- ½ red onion
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon almond flour
- ⅓ cup Panko bread crumbs or ground pork rinds
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Combine drained tuna in a medium-sized bowl with red onion, egg, flour, Panko bread crumbs, lemon juice, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Grab a handful of tuna mixture. Press it between your hands to form a patty. You might have to squeeze it quite hard. Continue to make patties until the tuna mixture is gone. I usually get six nice-size patties out of 2 cans of tuna.
- Preheat your Air Fryer to 360 degrees F.
- Spray the basket of your air fryer with avocado oil, and place tuna patties in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry the patties for 5 minutes each side until crispy and golden brown.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Drain the water out of the tuna well.
- Chop onions up quite small so the burgers form easily and don't fall apart.
- Make low-carb tuna patties the same size to ensure they cook evenly.
- For extra crispy air fryer tuna cakes, spray the outside with avocado oil when you place them in the air fryer and when flipping.
- Increase the cooking time up to 15 minutes for thicker patties.
