Steps

20 minutes

1

In a food processor, add heart of palm and cooked chickpeas.
2

Plus ingredients together until the texture is flaky and resembles crab meat.
3

In a large bowl add aquafaba (water chickpeas where cooked in, or water from the chickpea can), and whisk liquid for 1 minute until it turns white and foamy (like egg whites).
4

Next add in vegan mayo, dijon mustard, Worchester sauce, liquid smoke, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, old bay seasoning, cayenne pepper, and the heart of palm/chickpea mix.
5

Carefully mix all the ingredients together, making sure the flavor is evenly distributed.
6

Using a measuring spoon (to ensure equal sizing), scoop out the "crab" cake mix and shape into the desired disk size.
7

Once done, place "crab" cakes into the freezer for 10-15 minutes, this will help keep the hold while frying them later.
8

To shallow fry; in a large skillet add cooking oil (I used 1/2 cup canola oil for its high smoke point) on medium heat.
9

Cook "crab" cakes for 3-5 minutes on both sides until golden brown.

Enjoy these Vegan "Crab" Cakes just as you would any other crab cake! I served mine on a bed of mixed spring salad, with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, lime juice, salt, and cayenne pepper.
