MUFFIN TIN CRAB CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spray METAL muffin pans with butter flavor cooking spray.
• Combine all ingredients, mixing throughly.
• Spoon mixture into muffin cups, mashing into cup, so that it is full.
• Fill any empty cups 1/3 of the way full with water.
• Bake about 30 minutes, or until crispy, golden brown on top.
• These get golden and crunchy on all sides, like traditionally fried crab cakes, which I think is neat. To get less crispy crab cakes, decrease baking time to about 15 or 20 minutes.
• You can make in mini muffin tins for appitizers. Just watch until golden brown, about 8 or 12 minutes I think.

• 5. Tips: you see here it says to make your own season salt, there are many variations of season salt personally I skipped this step altogether as most call for garlic powder so it just depends on what mood I am in if I want some onion powder or salt I just toss in a bit so on and so forth most of the time all I add is the garlic powder feel free as always to tailor it to your liking I will post some salt recipes I have found. This season blend can also but used on chicken, fish, pork ect.
