Instructions

    1.
    Preheat an oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl, combine drained canned crab with the parmesan, almond flour, chopped green onion, mayo, and the first round of seasonings: salt, pepper, lemon pepper, paprika, onion powder, and cayenne.
    2.
    Form approx. 8-10 crab cakes that are about 2 TB of crab mix each. Simply form each portion into a ball and press into a patty on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper.
    3.
    Bake the tray for about 25 minutes, no flipping required.
    4.
    While the crab cakes cool momentarily, make the dipping sauce by whisking together all remaining ingredients. You may microwave the mayo-based dip for up to 10 seconds if you wish.
    5.
    Serve the crab cakes with the cajun mayo and extra lemon wedges.
