Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Lump crab meat
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 stalk Green onion
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the lump crab meat, almond flour, and grated Parmesan cheese. Gently mix to avoid breaking the crab meat too much.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, egg, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and Old Bay seasoning until well combined.
Chop the fresh parsley and green onion finely and add to the wet ingredients bowl along with salt and black pepper.
Pour the wet mixture over the crab and almond flour mixture. Gently fold until everything is well incorporated. Do not overmix.
Form the mixture into 8 equal patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the crabcakes in batches if necessary, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook each crabcake for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.
Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the crabcakes warm with a squeeze of lemon or your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce.
