Ingredients
- 1 egg beaten, large
- 1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 3 tablespoons parsley finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup almond flour finely ground (plus more if needed)
- 8 ounces crabmeat drained and picked, lump
- 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying
- tartar sauce for serving, keto-friendly
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together beaten egg, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice.
- Stir in Old Bay seasoning, parsley, salt, black pepper, and almond flour into the wet mixture until well combined. If the mixture seems too wet, add a small amount more of almond flour.
- Gently fold the crabmeat into the mixture to avoid breaking up the lumps, ensuring it is evenly coated.
- Form the mixture into 6 equally sized patties. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat, and fry each patty for about 5 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Serve with keto-friendly tartar sauce.
