Pro Tips

#1

Ensure the crab meat is well-drained to prevent the patties from becoming too soft.

#2

Do not make the patties thicker than 1 inch to ensure they cook through evenly.

#3

Leave space between the patties in the air fryer basket to allow for proper air circulation and crisping.

#4

Spray the tops of the patties with cooking spray halfway through to achieve a golden brown crust.
