Ingredients

• 14.75 oz Canned salmon (drained)
• 0.75 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped)
• 2 stalks Green onion (sliced)
• 1 tbsp Lemon juice
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp Paprika
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tbsp Olive oil (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, add the drained salmon, breaking it apart with a fork to remove any large chunks. Discard any large bones or skin if preferred.

Step 3

Add the panko breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, egg, Dijon mustard, parsley, green onion, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.

Step 4

Using your hands or a 1/3 measuring cup for uniformity, shape the mixture into 8 patties. Place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Bake the salmon cakes in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. No flipping is necessary.

Step 6

Remove the salmon cakes from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Step 7

Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, a side salad, or roasted vegetables.
