Why do my tuna patties fall apart?
There are many reasons why tuna patties fall apart. If the tuna patties are not pressed together tightly, they will fall apart. The patties can also stick to the pan and fall apart if the skillet isn't hot. Flipping the patties over too much can also cause them to fall apart.
Do you put egg in tuna patties?
Yes, you put eggs in tuna patties. The eggs act as a binder and keep the tuna patties together.
What can I substitute for eggs in tuna patties?
Milk or mashed potatoes are an excellent substitute for eggs in tuna patties; however, they're not keto. You can use almond milk, flax "eggs," or almond flour instead of eggs in tuna patties for a keto alternative to eggs.
What do you eat with tuna patties?
You can serve tuna patties with a side salad, cauliflower rice, or coleslaw.
