Chipotle Corn Salmon Cakes

So, I know I said I was going to be doing all apple recipes this month but I made these delicious salmon cakes the other day and posted pictures of them all over social media. I had a bunch of people ask me for the recipe. Hence this post taking place of this weeks apple post. Maybe I’ll double up on apple posts next week!

I am a terrible recipe follower when I cook, I mean absolutely horrible. In fact, half the time I do not even use a recipe. Salmon cakes were one of these recipe free times. I said ‘Hey, what is in my pantry? Salmon, corn, SALMON CAKES!’ So I just threw a bunch of ingredients in my bowl and slapped it on the griddle. I had a vague notion of what all I threw in there, but nothing to build an actual recipe off of. So in the wee hours of the morning today I recreated the salmon cakes. Making sure to get in lots of little tastes tests. It was a real hardship having to taste to make sure the cakes were juuuuust right.;)  

Salmon cakes are delicious for breakfast, just in case you were wondering.

One of the things I love about this recipe is that you can use canned salmon or fresh salmon. Salmon cakes (or fish cakes of any kind) are one of my favorite ways to use up any leftover salmon. Just flake it all apart with a fork and use it in the recipe.

I get my canned salmon and most of my spices from Thrive Market. It is like an online Costco for healthy foods.

Without further ado here is my recipe for Chipotle Corn Salmon Cakes:
