Crab Cakes – Version 1

003BA152-9A68-453E-A005-49459491479C

We love Crab Cakes but because of the price of crab, I rarely make them. We could only find crab that was small pieces of white meat so if you can find lump crab pieces, use them instead. However, the small pieces didn’t affect the taste at all, they were still delicious! These Crab Cakes are very easy to make and delicious. I made them, put them in the refrigerator overnight and cooked them for our lunch the next day.

  1. Guess who’s making these Friday? This girl! We should just meet and cook for each other already! 🙂

  2. I think I will try these with the crab we caught and canned last fall. I just don’t have crab on hand very often, so I keep forgetting to use it! Looks amazing and I can convert it to gluten-free very easily, I think.

  3. Nice recipe Diane, I love crab luckily we get lots of crab here. I also use prawns which are really nice little cakes with a chilli dip 🙂
