Classic Old Bay Crab Cakes

McCormick Kitchens

By: McCormick Kitchens

Made With:

Old Bay

Trivia players, take note: this is the original recipe that appeared on the back of the OLD BAY can. (It's a keeper.) Baking powder makes the crab cakes light and fluffy, while OLD BAY Seasoning adds personality. Serves four lucky folks, unless you’re feeling generous and want to make them into mini crab cakes to serve as appetizers.

Key products

  1. Break bread into small pieces in a large bowl. Moisten with milk. Add mayonnaise and Worcestershire sauce; mix well. Add remaining ingredients and mix lightly. Shape into 4 patties.
  2. Refrigerate patties for 30 minutes to help keep them together when cooking.
  3. Heat oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Fry crab cakes for about 5 minutes per side or until cooked through and golden brown.
Test Kitchen Tip: To broil instead of frying, place crab cakes on a foil-lined baking sheet. Broil for 10 minutes, turning once, or until golden brown on both sides.
