Easy and Good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I'm not a great cook, but these turned out really well. I didn't find them too crumbly (I patted them down and kept them at... a fairly small size). I used canned crab and it was fine.Read more

Good flavors, but crumbly
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

These cakes are difficult to saute without breaking them apart. I think I'll look for a recipe with egg in it from now on.

tasty treats
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I found the slaw really tangy, but the combo of flavours was great. Hard pack the cakes or they tend to crumble while... cooking. Loved using the Panko crumbs on this recipe.Read more

AWESOME Crab Cakes!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These were actually fairly easy to make - I followed the recipe exactly as stated. The real test on the taste of the crab... cakes came when I made these for a get together with family & friends.... everybody wanted the recipe & raved about the taste. The slaw complimented the cakes wonderfully. This will definitely become a traditional recipe.Read more
