Preparations:
Drain the tuna and then place in a bowl along with the lemon juice, eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, coconut flour, salt and pepper.
Mix to combine.
Scoop some of the tuna mixture into a 1/4-cup measuring cup and press down with the back of a spoon to pack it tightly. Repeat until you get 9 patties.
Heat a large pan greased with olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties in a single layer. Cook on each side for 4 to 5 minutes and then flip them over. If the patty doesn’t release when you try to flip it, cook it for a few more seconds until it’s crisp and ready to flip. Once cooked on both sides, these tuna cakes are ready to eat!
Please note: these tuna cakes can be eaten hot or cold and they can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
