Best 3 Gluten Free Crab Cakes With Snap Pea Salad Recipes

BEST EVER GLUTEN FREE CRAB CAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and egg until smooth. Shake in a couple of drops of hot sauce, or more to taste. Stir in cracker crumbs.
• Add crab meat and fold in very gently so as not to break up large lumps.
• Line a baking sheet with foil and spread with some of the softened butter. Set aside.
• Using your hands, carefully mold each cake, using about ½ cup mixture per each crab cake. Place them on the buttered baking sheet a few inches apart.
• Chill crab cakes for at least one hour, or up to 4.
• Preheat oven to 450° F. Remove crab cakes from the fridge. If desired, brush or drizzle each crab cake with the rest of the butter that's been melted and bake for about 12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown and sizzling.

GLUTEN-FREE CRAB CAKES {DAIRY-FREE}

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, mayonnaise, gluten-free Dijon mustard, gluten-free Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay, lemon juice, and salt.
• Add the parsley, gluten-free bread crumbs, and then the crab meat on top. With a rubber spatula or large spoon, very gently fold together the ingredients, so you do not break up the crab meat.
• Cover the crab cake mixture with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
• Spray a baking sheet with gluten-free cooking spray. I used olive oil spray.
• Using a 1/2 cup measuring cup, portion the crab cake mixture into 6 mounds on the baking sheet. If you are baking the crab cakes, do not flatten them. Use your hands or a spoon to compact each crab cake. If you are frying the crab cakes you will need to flatten them into patties.

GLUTEN-FREE CRAB CAKES WITH SNAP PEA SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk eggs, lemon zest, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 Tbsp. mustard, 3/4 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a large bowl.
• Finely chop 4 scallions, then finely chop mint to yield 2 Tbsp. total, reserving remaining leaves; add to egg mixture. Add jalapeño (if using), almond meal, and cornmeal and stir to combine. Fold in crabmeat, then form into 12 (1/2"-thick) patties.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Working in batches if needed, cook crab cakes until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate.
• Meanwhile, whisk 1/2 tsp. mustard, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. pepper, and remaining 3 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl. Thinly slice remaining 2 scallions on an angle; transfer to bowl with dressing. Add sugar snap peas, radishes, and reserved mint leaves; toss to combine.
• Whisk remaining 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tsp. lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. mustard, and 1/8 tsp. pepper in a small bowl.
• Serve crab cakes with salad and mayonnaise sauce alongside.
• Do Ahead
• Crab cake patties can be formed 1 day ahead. Arrange in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and chill.
