- Tear the 3 slices of white bread into small pieces& add into the rest of the ingredients.
- Mix well with large spoon.
- Place cracker meal onto a large plate.
- Form the mixture between the palms of your hands into the size of tennis balls, gently squeezing out excess juice, then somewhat or lightly flattening& forming the balls into the cakes about 1" to 1 1/2" thick.
- Dip& coat both sides of the cakes in the cracker meal or breadcrumbs& set them aside on another plate.
- Place vegetable cooking oil into a large skillet, just enough to cover the entire bottom.
- When the oil is hot, place on medium heat.
- Place the crab cakes into the skillet, being careful not to allow them to break apart.
- With 2 spatulas, gently turn the cakes over to do the other side, until both sides are a light golden brown.
- If you need to add a little more vegetable oil to prevent the cakes from burning, do so.

[email protected]I've never had crab cakes before, but these were amazing! The crab meat was so tender and juicy, and the breading was perfectly crispy. I will definitely be making these again.

[email protected]These crab cakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think they could have used a little more mayonnaise or butter. Otherwise, they were pretty good.

[email protected]These crab cakes were a bit too spicy for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try them again with less Old Bay seasoning next time.
