Crab Cakes

Instructions
 

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.

Dressing

  • Add all ingredients to a small bowl and stir until well mixed.
