Instructions

1

Pat the salmon thoroughly dry — surface moisture is the enemy of crispness.

In a bowl, toss the salmon with 1 tbsp everything bagel seasoning, 1 tbsp oil until evenly coated.

3

Arrange in a single layer with space between pieces and cook at 200 °C (390 °F) for 9 minutes until it flakes easily and reaches 63 °C (145 °F).

Common Questions

What temperature do you air fry salmon at?
Set the air fryer to 200 °C (390 °F) and cook for about 9 minutes, until it flakes easily and reaches 63 °C (145 °F).
Can I cook this in batches?
Yes — keep a single layer with space between pieces. Overcrowding steams instead of crisps, so cook in batches if your basket is small.
Can I make Everything Bagel salmon ahead of time?
Yes. Cook as directed, then warm the pieces through in the air fryer for 3–4 minutes before serving to bring back the crisp edges.
The story behind this recipe ▾
Air frying salmon works because rapidly circulating hot air dehydrates the surface and renders fat, producing a crisp exterior at 200 °C without submerging in oil. Everything Bagel is added so the seasoning concentrates as moisture leaves.
