Delicate crab, chives, and spices are folded into our Panko Breadcrumbs to make these perfect bites.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/4 cups Premium Panko Breadcrumbs
- Shelled cooked crab
- 1/4 cup finely diced celery
- 1/4 cup minced fresh chives
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce

INSTRUCTIONS
- Sort through crab and discard any bits of shell.

- Pour remaining 1 cup Panko into a shallow bowl.
- Shape crab mixture into 24 cakes, each about 2 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick. Turn each cake in the Panko to coat on all sides, pressing gently to make crumbs adhere. Place cakes slightly apart in an oiled baking pan.
