Can you freeze uncooked homemade crab cakes?

Crab cakes are totally freezable. Whether they are cooked or uncooked. However, we recommend freezing crab cakes un cooked. This will give them a more robust flavor and make it easier to cook them without them drying out.

How do you air fry frozen crab cakes?

Place your frozen crab cakes in a pre heated air fryer basket. Give a spritz of olive oil and air fry for 10-12 minutes at 360 degrees.

Can you freeze already cooked crab cakes?

Yes you can freeze cooked crab cakes. Put the cakes into either a heavy-duty freezer bag, a Ziploc bag, or an airtight container. Seal well, and label. They will stay fresh for up to 3 months.

How long can you keep crab cakes in the refrigerator?

Crab cakes stay fresh for 3-5 days in the refrigerator as long as you store them in an air tight container. If you decide not to cook them up the same day and wait for a few days your mixture should be fine. If you cannot use the entire batch just freeze the unused portion for the next time.

Notes

Try to use a high quality, lump crab meat. The fresher the better.
Be gentle when mixing your crab meat. Try not to break up the larger lumps.
Don't overdue the filler, less is best.
Chill your crab cakes for 20 to 30 minutes before air frying it will help maintain their shape when baking.
Don't be shy about adding your own flavors. Crab meat pair well with a variety of fresh herbs like thyme and parsley. You can also change up the breadcrumbs, try using Panko or make your own keto cornbread breadcrumbs for keto crab cakes in the air fryer.
Use an ice cream scoop and make crab balls in the air fryer, nothing better than Maryland crab balls..so tasty! If you add a little bit of cream cheese and diced jalapeños into the mixture you can make air fryer crab cake poppers.
