🦀 No crab was harmed in the making of these crispy, golden "crab" cakes! Made with hearts of palm and artichokes in the air fryer, they deliver all the seafood-inspired flavor with plant-based ingredients – ready in just 15 minutes!
Course Main Dishes, 30 minute meals, Appetizers + Sides
To a food processor, add the hearts of palm, chickpeas and artichokes. Pulse till the mixture is chopped but still holds a chunky-like consistency.
Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl and add the remaining ingredients. Using a wooden spoon or spatula combine well and begin forming your patties with a 1/3 cup as a measuring tool. This will yield around 12-13 1-inch thick patties.
For cooking, grease the base of the air fryer basket. Preheat the air fryer to 400F (200C). Evenly arrange the patties in the base of the basket, leaving each pattie some room to breathe. Cook them for around 7 minutes (6-8) depending on the size and thickness of each. Flip them half way through.
To make the tartar sauce, simply add all the ingredients to a small bowl and stir till combined.
Serve the hot crab cakes with fresh dill, lemon and tartar!
Notes
If you do not plan on cooking all the patties at once that is completely fine. You can mould them, freeze them and cook them later. Allow for an extra 1-2 minutes on each side is cooking from frozen.
