Air Fryer Crab Cakes

🧂 Ingredients

• 8 oz Lump Crab Meat
• ½ Red Bell Pepper

  finely diced
• 2 Green Onions

  finely sliced
• 2 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 2 Tablespoons Saltine Crackers

  crushed
• 1 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard
• ½ Teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
• Juice of 1 Lemon

Instructions

• 1 Finely dice the red bell pepper and finely slice the green onions.
• 2 Drain and gently pick through the lump crab meat to remove any shells.
• 3 In a medium mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat, diced red bell pepper,
  sliced green onions, mayonnaise, crushed saltine crackers, Dijon mustard, Old
  Bay seasoning, and the juice of one lemon. Gently fold the ingredients together
  to combine.
• 4 Using your hands, form the crab cake mixture into approximately 4 equal-sized
  cakes. Each cake should be about 4 tablespoons of the mixture.
• 5 Place the formed crab cakes onto plastic wrap. Wrap them individually and place
  them in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour. Chilling helps the crab
  cakes hold their shape during cooking.
• 6 Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (188°C) for a few minutes.
• 7 Lightly grease the air fryer basket to prevent sticking.
• 8 Carefully unwrap the chilled crab cakes and place them in a single layer in the
  air fryer basket.
• 9 Air fry the crab cakes at 370°F (188°C) for 10 minutes, turning them halfway
  through the cooking time for even browning.
• 10 Once the crab cakes are golden brown and cooked through, carefully remove them
  from the air fryer basket.
• 11 Serve the air-fried crab cakes with your choice of dipping sauce, such as
  Remoulade Sauce or Tartare Sauce.
