Air-fried crab cakes come out just as golden brown and crispy as the traditional kind but with less grease and mess to clean up.
Ingredients
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup low-fat mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp finely chopped parsley
- 1 ½ cups fresh corn kernels (from 2 ears)
- 8 oz crab meat, drained and picked over
- ½ cup panko bread crumbs
- Cooking spray
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Steps
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the green onions, egg, mayonnaise, Dijon, and parsley.
- To bowl with mayonnaise mixture, add the corn, crab meat, and bread crumbs, gently combining. Using ¼ cup measure, scoop and form mixture into 8 cakes, about 1-inch thick. Place in freezer for 10 min.
- Preheat air fryer to 375°F. Coat bottom of basket with the cooking spray. To basket, add half of crab cakes in a single layer. Coat tops with spray. Close lid and cook 10 min., flipping once halfway through cooking time. Repeat with second batch. Serve immediately with lemon wedges and sauce.
