Ingredients

  • 1 16-ounce can fresh crab meat
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup almond flour, plus 2 tablespoons for dusting
  • 2 tablespoons tapioca (may need more)
  • ¼ lemon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons parsley
  • 2 tablespoons mustard
  • 1 onion
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Directions

Start by mixing the crab and egg in a large bowl. Add all remaining ingredients except for the extra 2 tablespoons almond flour and the oil. Add more tapioca if mixture seems too wet.

Cook on medium-high until each side is golden brown, about 4 minutes each side.

Recipes are analyzed per serving (unless otherwise indicated) for calories, fat, cholesterol, sodium, carbohydrates, fiber and protein. Nutrient amounts are approximate due to variations in brands, manufacturer, preparation and ingredient substitutions. When ingredient choices are listed, we use the first one.
