Recipe BackgroundEven though my kids are a little old for Sponge Bob, they still love this recipe for crabby patties. This is really a recipe for crab cakes that can be used as an appetizer or as a main course. Crabby Patties2 (7.1 ounce) cans crab meat, drained well½ medium onion, chopped ½ cups seasoned dry breadcrumbs 2 eggs beaten Salt and pepper to taste 2 Tablespoons butter 2 Tablespoons olive oil In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine crab, onion, breadcrumbs, egg, salt and pepper. Then heat oil and butter in a large skillet on medium low. Using disposable rubber gloves (my preference) form 1-2 Tablespoons of crab mixture into a patty (1 ½ “-2” in diameter). Place patties in pan and brown on both sides. It may take 4-5 minutes per side to brown. Remove patties to a paper towel lined plate and blot off any excess oil. Makes approximately 14 (2”) patties
