Vegan Baltimore Crab Cakes

[Poppy]

Phenomenal!

Ingredients:
1/4 cup vegan mayo - I use Earth Balance
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1.5 teaspoons egg replacer mixed with 2 Tablespoons warm water
1 Tablespoon dijon mustard
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons Old Bay Seasoning
1/2 jalapeño, seeded, finely chopped
1 pound (package) Match Meats crab (www.veganessentials.com)
1 1/4 cup panko
1 Tablespoon chopped chives
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

coconut oil for frying

Vegenaise tartar sauce

Whisk first 7 ingredients in a medium bowl. Add "crab"; fold to blend. Stir in 3/4 cup panko, chives, salt and pepper. Divide into 6 patties and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.

Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Place remaining 1/2 cup panko on a flat plate. Coat cakes with panko and fry until brown and crisp - 3-4 minutes per side. Serve with Vegenaise tartar sauce or on a bun with vegan cole slaw.

Do you like the EB mayo better than Vegannaise?

Where do you find vegan panko?

ETA: This sounds awesome.

I love the EB mayo...thicker and creamier than Vegenaise IMO.

I will have to try it.

The match crab meat is some good stuff. My favorite thing to do with it is crab rangoon but I might have to give this a try.

The Panko I use is "Dynasty". It does have palm oil, though.

Whoa. That's all I can think of to say right now.Excuse me while I wipe the drool off the keyboard.
