Vegan Crab Cakes Recipe
Ingredients:
1 can Jack fruit
1 can Heart of palm
1/2 cup Nutritional yeast
1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1 tsp Vegan egg replacer
2 tbsp Vegan mayo
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp Smoked paprika
1/2 tsp Lemon juice
1 tbsp Old bay seasoning
Wet Batter:
1/2 cup Oat milk
1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
Dry Batter:
1/2 cup All purpose flour
1/2 cup Breadcrumbs
1 tbsp Old bay
1 tbsp Onion powder
Seaweed flakes
Tartar Sauce:
1/2 cup Sweet relish
3 tbsp Vegan Mayo
1 tbsp Old bay seasoning
1 tbsp Garlic salt
Instructions:
Drain and rinse the jackfruit and heart of palm. Shred the jackfruit and chop the heart of palm into small pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded jackfruit, chopped heart of palm, nutritional yeast, panko breadcrumbs, vegan egg replacer, vegan mayo, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, lemon juice, and Old Bay seasoning. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the oat milk and apple cider vinegar to create the wet batter.
In another bowl, mix the dry batter ingredients: all-purpose flour, breadcrumbs, Old Bay, onion powder, and seaweed flakes.
Form the mixture into small patties or cakes, then coat each patty in the dry batter and wet batter, ensuring they are evenly covered.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little oil. Cook the crab cakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
While the crab cakes are cooking, prepare the tartar sauce by mixing together sweet relish, vegan mayo, Old Bay seasoning, and garlic salt in a small bowl.
Once the crab cakes are cooked, serve them hot with the tartar sauce on the side.
Enjoy your delicious vegan crab cakes!
