I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. I love that I can use canned crab meat, which makes it a quick and easy weeknight meal.

These crab cakes were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less Old Bay seasoning next time.

These crab cakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more Old Bay seasoning next time.
