Ingredients
- 1/2 cup whole-grain cornmeal finely ground
- 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour or gluten-free blend
- 2 tablespoons green onions diced, white and green parts
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 6-oz can lump crab meat drained and picked over (to remove any shells)
- 1/2 cup frozen corn
- olive oil or clarified butter (ghee) for cooking
Instructions
- In a large bowl whisk together the cornmeal, flour, green onions, baking powder and salt. Make a well (hole) in the center and pour in the milk, egg, and melted butter. Stir with a fork until well combined. Carefully fold in the crabmeat and corn (no need to defrost).
- In the bottom of a large skillet warm up a thin layer of olive oil (or ghee) over medium heat. Drop in spoonfuls of batter (smaller spoonfuls for finger food and larger ones for a plated appetizer). Cook in batches for 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown on the outside and no longer runny on the inside.Note: If your pan is too hot they'll get brown on the outside before they cook all the way through on the inside - so getting the temperature right is key!
- Transfer the warm cakes to a platter and top with sour cream (a squeeze bottle can help make it look pretty) along with diced shallots and/or parsley. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible. 2. Recipe can be made gluten-free buy substituting gluten-free all purpose flour, preferably whole grain.
