"My family really likes crab cakes but always thought they had too much breading and not enough crab. So I experimented until I found the right light combination," says Kathy Buchanan of Hartsville, South Carolina. "This recipe is so good, you can serve it as an appetizer or a main dish."

These crab cakes were delicious! I served them with a lemon-herb sauce and they were a hit with my family.

These crab cakes were a little too salty for my taste, but I think that's because I used salted butter instead of unsalted butter.

These crab cakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more Old Bay seasoning next time.

I didn't have any fresh crab on hand, so I used canned crab instead. The crab cakes still turned out great, but I think they would have been even better with fresh crab.
