Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, gently pick through the crabmeat to remove any shell fragments, being careful not to break up the lumps too much.

  3. Add breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, mustard, egg, parsley, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper to the crabmeat. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined.

  4. Using clean hands, shape the crab mixture into small patties, about 1-inch in diameter. Place the formed crabcakes on the prepared baking sheet.

  5. Brush the tops of the crabcakes with olive oil to help them brown nicely in the oven.

  6. Bake the Mini Crabcakes for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

  7. Remove the crabcakes from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

  8. Garnish the Mini Crabcakes with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for a touch of brightness.
