Crab Cakes
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200 °F) and lay a pan with baking paper.
In a food processor add the garbanzo beans and hearts of palm/ artichokes or banana blossoms just to break up – don’t pulse too much.
Add remaining ingredients into a food processor and blend until everything has broken down. Do not over pulse so it gets too mushy but to a desired texture.
Use a desired size cookie scoop to scoop mixtures into patties (larger ¼ cup patties for 10 servings or two tablespoon cookie scoop for 20 servings) and spray with olive oil.
Bake for 30 minutes, turning once halfway until lightly browned.
Serve over lettuce or slaw with dill sauce drizzled on top.
