Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 2
Scoop crab with a 1/3-cup measure and form into 8 patties. Place patties on a plate, cover, and refrigerate until firm, 1 to 8 hours.
Step 3
Gather all ingredients.
Step 4
Combine beaten egg, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, seafood seasoning, and hot pepper sauce in a large bowl. Stir in green onion and set aside.
Step 5
Place crabmeat in a medium bowl and break up with a fork. Add milk, salt, and black pepper; toss to coat. Add saltine crackers and baking powder; toss lightly to combine. Add to egg mixture, stirring gently and being careful not to break apart crab lumps.
Step 6
Spray crab cakes on both sides with cooking spray and place in the air fryer basket.

Cook in the preheated air fryer for 5 minutes. Turn crab cakes over gently and continue cooking until crispy brown, about 5 minutes more.
