      Why Do My Salmon Cakes Keep Falling Apart in The Air Fryer?

      The Salmon Cakes fall apart in an air fryer if they are too wet. Ensure that you have added enough ingredients to the recipe to remain together when heated.

      So, do not place them inside the air fryer unless the ingredients are bound together.

      How Much Time Should I Set to Make Air Fryer Salmon Cakes?

      To make air fryer salmon cakes, you should preheat the air fryer. After spraying the non-stick cooking spray, place the salmon fillet on the basket.

      Set the time for 10-12 minutes. While cooking, flip the patties. After 12 minutes, they are ready to be served.

      At What Temperature Should I Set to Cook Salmon Cakes Inside the Air Fryer?

      An air fryer requires 10-12 minutes to cook salmon cakes.

      However, if your salmon fillet is thick, you can set more time. If your salmon patties are frozen, then it will take more time. Moreover, thin fillets will take less time. In short, you can adjust time according to the thickness of patties.

      Once it is cooked, you can take it out and enjoy the mouth-watering salmon cakes.

      Why Should I Cook Salmon Cakes Inside an Air Fryer?

      An air fryer helps you cook salmon food quickly. Moreover, it cooks the food well. In an air fryer, the nutrients and the calories adjust in a way that proves to be healthy.
