  3. In a blender, combine flax seeds and hot water. Start the blender on low and slowly add in Spectrum 5 Collagen™. Increase speed and mix well for 30 seconds.
  4. Add to the salmon mixture and mix with a wooden spoon. Add flour as needed to thicken up the texture. Shape mixture into 6 to 7 patties. Let sit in the refrigerator covered for 30 minutes to an hour.
  5. To cook, heat a large pan over medium-high heat with 1-2 tablespoons coconut oil. Add salmon cakes and cook for about 5 minutes on each side until crispy.
