Sometimes, you don’t need bread for a burger, not even grain-free bread! This Sweet Potato & Smokey Salmon Burger satisfies all of your taste buds without the bun!
If you haven’t tried my Smoked Salmon Cakes, you are missing out! Seriously, dinner can be ready in about 25 minutes! My Smokey Salmon Cakes also make great burgers, on a grain-free bun or on fried pieces of sweet potato! Yum! I decided to add cream cheese since smoked salmon and cream cheese was one of my FAVORITE sushi rolls! I also LOVE these burgers with my Yummy Sauce!

- 1 batch of Smokey Salmon Burgers
- 1 sweet potato (the fatter the better, this will make a bigger bun), peeled and sliced a little less than 1/8-inch thick
- Extra Yummy Sauce or Cream Cheese
Prepare Smokey Salmon Burgers according to recipe. One recipe should make 6-7 burgers if using 1/4 cup scoop and 7-8 if using 3 tablespoon scoop (my new preference).
Sweet Potato "Buns"
(These can be prepared in the same pan as burgers after burgers are cooked or in a separate pan while the burgers are cooking.)
OVEN DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Carefully slice sweet potatos into 1/8 inch slices and arrange on baking sheet. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil (or bacon grease) and sprinkle generosly with salt.
Bake for 15-20 minutes and then flip and bake for extra 5-10 minutes or until brown and carmalized.
Stove top: Add 2-3 tbsp. bacon grease or salted butter to pan over medium heat. Fry sliced sweet potato rounds for 2-3 minutes each side or until brown and slightly tender. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels (or brown bag). Sprinkle slightly with salt.
Make Smokey Salmon Burgers.
Prepare Yummy Sauce.
Assemble Burgers: Place slice of cream cheese (approximately 1 tbsp.) onto one of sweet potato rounds. Top with smokey salmon burger and then another sweet potato round.
