Best Crab Cakes

Prep time: 10 MinCook time: 15 MinTotal time: 25 Min

The BEST ever crab cakes inspired by my friend Beth! I love how these have very little breading / filler and really let the crab shine. I can't wait to make this recipe again! The perfect easy appetizer or light dinner

Ingredients

• 1 lb. Lump Crab
• 1 Tbsp Grainy Mustard
• 1/4 Cup Mayo
• 2 tsp  Old Bay Seafood Seasoning
• 1/2 Lemon, Juice
• 2/3 Cup Breadcrumbs

Instructions

1. Gently mix together all ingredients (because you want the chunks of crab to stay intact) and form into 6 crab cakes (about 1/2 cup filling each); press cakes between your palms so that they are tightly packed and do not fall apart.
2. Preheat the oven to 350F and coat a large skillet with olive oil over medium high heat; pan sear the crab cakes for 1-2 minutes per side (until golden brown) and then transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
3. Serve with lemon and tartar sauce and enjoy!
