Deliciously baked lump crab cakes with sweet end of summer corn.
Ingredients
- 1 cup corn kernels (fresh)
- 1 cup about 30 reduced-fat ritz crackers, crushed
- 1 whole egg plus 2 egg whites (beaten)
- 4 scallions (chopped fine)
- 1/4 cup minced red bell pepper
- 2 tbsp light mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp fat free yogurt
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley
- 1 lemon (juiced)

- cooking spray
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine corn, crushed crackers, eggs, scallions, pepper, mayo, yogurt, parsley, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
- Mix well, then fold in crab meat, careful not to over mix so the crab remains in large chunks.
- Gently shape into 8 patties using a 1/2 cup measuring cup.
- Chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour before baking.
- Preheat oven to 425F. Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Bake about 24 to 28 minutes turning halfway, or until golden brown.
