Since classic crab cakes are often made with breadcrumbs, those on a gluten-free diet don’t get to enjoy the delicious Maryland specialty.

Almond Meal and Cornmeal

Instead of regular breadcrumbs, a great way to make gluten-free crab cakes is by using a mixture of almond meal and cornmeal. You can use almond meal on its own, but a little bit of cornmeal is perfect for some added crunch to the outside of your crab cakes. These ingredients are combined with mayo, egg, and mustard to hold the cakes together, and result in an ideal crab cake- crisp on the outside and moist on the inside.

Gluten-free Mayo

Did you know that not all mayonnaise is gluten-free? Most crab cakes are served with a mayo-based sauce, so those with gluten sensitivity should be careful around these sauces. It’s important to check the label on the mayo used, as brands tend to market the condiment as “gluten-free,” but could still actually contain small amounts of gluten. To be safe, it’s always a fun idea to make your own crab cake dipping sauce! Do some research to find brands that contain no gluten ingredients, then add in mustard, a splash of lemon juice, and freshly ground black pepper for a delicious homemade sauce.

Spring Salad

Crab cakes can be paired with almost any side, but a fresh salad is perfect for the upcoming spring months! To add some zest to your salad try making a lime dressing. The lime flavor pairs perfectly with crab cakes and will have you feeling ready for spring. To make the dressing, combine two tablespoons olive oil, two tablespoons lime juice, one clove minced garlic, salt and ground black pepper.
