"My family really likes crab cakes but always thought they had too much breading and not enough crab. So I experimented until I found the right light combination," says Kathy Buchanan of Hartsville, South Carolina. "This recipe is so good, you can serve it as an appetizer or a main dish."

I've made crab cakes many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The crab cakes were so moist and flavorful, and the bread crumbs gave them a nice crispy coating. I will definitely be making these again!

These crab cakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more mayonnaise next time. But the flavor was good, and the bread crumbs gave them a nice crispy coating.
