Crab Cakes for an Afternoon Snack

Looking for more ways to Freshen up your diet with seafood? Whether it’s for breakfast, lunch, dinner or snacks, seafood fits into your meal plan with speed and lots of bonus nutritional benefits. Here’s another great idea to add to your seafood repertoire!

Make at Home Crab Cakes

We have a secret: we’re a sucker for a good crab cake. A cup of crab meat will give you a full 30g of protein and contains lots of zinc, a mineral that supports your immune system. But who cares about the healthy stuff when it just tastes so good?

We carry ready-made Crab Cakes in our market but you can also make your own at home for a quick weekend snack. The secret? Cheat on the details by using pancake mix!

Add three tablespoons of pancake mix to a bowl, along with a tablespoon of yellow mustard, 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise, and a beaten egg.
Mix it all up and then stir in one full bag of Canadian Rock Crab Meat from our market.
Form the mixture into three-inch cakes.
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat, deep enough to cover at least half the height of the cakes. Fry until golden, about 7-8 minutes per side.

Serve immediately, and serve often – the perfect snack to tide you over until dinnertime!
