Keto Maple Glazed Salmon

This keto maple glazed salmon recipe was my husband's genius!

On a cold Saturday morning, I had just finished filming the keto maple syrup recipe you'll find linked below. Well, we had salmon thawed that we were going to pan fry for lunch.

My husband looked at me and said “I think that maple syrup would be amazing on the salmon!”

I said “YES, let's do it!”

So, this keto maple glazed salmon recipe was born! And, oooooh…it's so good. I can't wait for you to try it!

Get the Keto Maple Syrup recipe or if you'd rather “cheat”….you can use Lakanto Maple Syrup as well.

Your New Favorite Keto Glazed Salmon

We brush the keto maple syrup on early in the cooking process because it won't burn like a regular maple syrup would.

The end result is great depth of flavor and a perfect glossy finish.

Depending on the thickness of your salmon, you may need to adjust the cooking time.

You will want to pair this Keto Maple Glazed Salmon with another fat to balance out your macros.

We paired it with a spinach salad with feta, avocado, walnuts, blueberries and a homemade vinaigrette dressing.
