Air Fryer Tuna Patties
Air fryer tuna patties are so easy to make! The tuna patties come out crispy and golden brown after cooked in the air fryer.
Equipment
- Air Fryer Parchment Paper optional
Ingredients
- 7 oz canned tuna
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- olive oil
Instructions
- To a medium bowl, add the tuna. Break apart any large chunks with a fork.
- Add the egg and panko, then the all the seasonings and spices.
- Mash together until all the ingredients are incorporated together.
- Form the mixture into 6 balls. Flatten each ball into a flatter UFO shape, pressing together so that tuna patty stays together.
- Line the air fryer basket with air fryer parchment paper or brush/spray with oil.
- Place the 6 tuna patties in the air fryer basket. Brush the top of each patty with olive oil.
- Air fry at 360 degrees F for 6 minutes. Flip tuna patties, then brush the tops with oil again. Air fry for another 4-6 minutes until tuna patties are golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the air fryer and serve as desired.
Notes
- All air fryers cook differently. You may need to adjust cooking times based on your air fryer.
- If not using parchment paper, spray or brush air fryer basket with oil to prevent sticking.
- Press tuna patties together firmly to hold them together before cooking. If needed, place in the refrigerator for several minutes before cooking.
