Ingredients
- 1 lb lump crab meat
- 0.25 cup mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 large egg
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the lump crab meat, mayonnaise, breadcrumbs, Dijon mustard, and the egg. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much.
Step 2
Shape the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties, about 3 inches in diameter. If the mixture is too soft to form patties, refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and lightly coat the bottom with olive oil or nonstick cooking spray.
Step 4
Cook the crab cakes in batches, about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Step 5
Transfer the cooked crab cakes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a squeeze of fresh lemon.
