Maryland Crab Cakes II

 
Maryland Crab Cakes II
maryland-crab-cakes-ii.jpg
Our Maryland Crab Cakes II recipe is from the American Heritage Cookbook published in 1964. The primary difference between this version and others is that bread is used as the filler rather than bread crumbs and egg whites are beaten and folded in making a lighter crab cake. No mayonnaise is used in this recipe but the bread is soaked in olive oil.  To update the recipe you could cut back to about 1/4 cup olive oil.
