Crab Cakes For Diabetics
 
Yield: 4 servings
The New Family Cookbook for People with Diabetes
 
Ingredients:
 
1/2 pound lump crabmeat (fresh, frozen, or canned and drained),
flaked
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon margarine, melted
1 large egg, beaten, or 1/4 cup egg substitute
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/8 teaspoon salt
Pinch of cayenne pepper
2 dashes of hot pepper sauce
3/4 cup soft bread crumbs or 1-1/2 pieces white bread, finely
crumbled
1 small lemon, cut in wedges
 
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400*F. Prepare a cookie sheet with nonstick
pan spray. In a medium bowl, combine the crabmeat, mustard,
margarine, egg, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper,
and pepper sauce. Add 1/4 cup of the bread crumbs; mix well. If
time permits, chill for an hour or more. Shape the crab mixture
into 4 patties about 3/4 inch thick (use about 1/2 cup mixture
for each). Pat the remaining bread crumbs on all surfaces of the
crab cakes; place the cakes on the prepared cookie sheet. Bake
for 20 to 25 minutes, or until lightly browned, turning the
cakes midway through the cooking time. Serve with lemon wedges.
