A crabcake is a savory patty traditionally made from crab meat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, mustard, egg, and various seasonings such as Old Bay or paprika. Originating from American coastal cuisine, particularly Maryland, crabcakes are often pan-fried, baked, or deep-fried. They are typically served as an appetizer, entree, or in a sandwich. Crabcakes offer protein from the crab meat, which is also rich in vitamins like B12 and essential minerals such as selenium and zinc. However, their nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation methods. Fried crabcakes may be higher in fat and calories compared to baked versions. Ingredients like mayonnaise and breadcrumbs add calories and can increase sodium levels. For a healthier option, crabcakes can be made with reduced-fat condiments and whole-grain breadcrumbs, then baked instead of fried.
