Ingredients
1(7oz)can tuna packed in water(well drained)
1heaping cup shredded cheddar cheese
1large egg
optional seasoning (but NO salt needed)
Instructions
In a medium size bowl, mix together the drained tuna, cheese and egg until well combined. You can optionally add in some seasoning such as black pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne. I’d avoid salt because the tuna is already loaded with it.
Form the tuna mixture into small, tightly packed patties and place them onto the bottom of your air fryer. I made mine about 2 inches wide.
Air fry at 390°F for 12-16 minutes, flipping them over half way through. After making these a few times, I’ve discovered that they are more done than they look! They continue to crisp up as they cool down.
Allow them to cool for a few minutes and then enjoy alone or with your favorite dipping sauce. I think they're yummy with Ranch dressing!
