Once you wash and pat dry the salmon, it’s time to coat it. Spoon or pour the glaze or sauce over the salmon. Be sure to use a pan that’s suitable to fit in the air fryer. I used a 6 inch cake pan.

Salmon is very easy to cook. It is also a great source of protein and omega 3. Cooking salmon in the air fryer will not dry out as the there is a time on the air fryer to alert you when it is done. 

Place the baking pan in the air fryer basket.

    I love the combination of honey and dijon, especially combined with salmon. And it’s even better when it can be done in an air fryer. Oh yum!

    We eat salmon weekly at my house so I really need this recipe for something new. And, I must get an Air Fryer, I think I am missing out on something good.
