I usually cut down on the oats to a half a cup, using as little as possible but enough to bind the ingredient.
Adding diced avocado to the mix makes the patties nice and moist.
This recipe also works well with fresh salmon that you may have leftover from the night before
Can you bake them instead of frying?
Yes, you can bake them at 350F (180C) until they lightly golden.
How long can the patties last? Will it be good enough to last the next day? Also how would you store it- fridge or freezer
Thanks for the recipe post, going to try it out right now. I usually see this made with potato oppose to oats. Will be interesting to see how the oat tuna cakes turnout.
Thanks
These were really simple to make and tasted great. They really tasted good by themselves or with a sauce. We will be making these again.
They sound great, but I can’t eat any grains. Can I use ground flax see in place of oats. And would it be the same amount.
Tried out this recipe. Fabulous taste. First time using oats for patties as other recipe I follow uses potatoes. These are more filling.
Curious; anyone have any idea what the macros would be per serving?
Thanks!
I love this recipe! I made it in the pan the first time and the second time in the oven.
This recipe is very filling and great for lunchbox.
these things are wack! I ate one and then passed out on the couch. it was really good though Id rate it a 9/10. is it possible though to replace the parsley with weed?
Looks like you already did? *_*
Your recipe’s delicious but where is the nutritional value .

Can either egg whites or liquid egg whites be used instead of whole eggs?
Yes, same portions.
