Air Fryer Crab Cakes

Ingredients

Crab Cakes

• 8 ounces lump crab meat (canned is fine, but drain well)
• ¼ cup almond flour
• 2 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
• 1 green onion, sliced
• ½ teaspoon Old Bay seasoning (or other fish seasoning)
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ teaspoon pepper
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoon melted butter

Spicy Mayo

• ¼ cup mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon sriracha
• ½ teaspoon Cajun seasoning (more to taste – it can be very salty)

Instructions

• In a large bowl, break up the crab meat with a fork. Stir in the almond flour, parsley, green onion, Old Bay, salt, and pepper until well combined.
• Stir in the egg, mayo, and mustard until the mixture is well moistened. Use your hands to form into 4 patties, each about ¾ inch to 1 inch thick. Place on a waxed paper lined plate and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Spray or brush the air fryer rack with oil (I used avocado oil spray). Brush melted butter over both sides of the crab cakes and place on the rack. 
• Air fry at 350F for 10 minutes, carefully flipping halfway through cooking. 
• For the mayo, whisk the ingredients together in a small bowl. Serve the crab cakes with lemon and a dollop of spicy mayo.
