Those crab cakes look amazing!! Crab Rangoon! The creamcheese in it is so good!

Thank you Lucy! Oohh Crab Rangoon is a great choice for crab recipe, and cream cheese in it is delicious! 👌👍

@@CookingwithCosori I can confirm that crab rangoon crisps up great in the cosori air fryer

it’s crazy how you can make food that looks deep fried with such little oil!

I have a can of jumbo lump crab in the fridge and I'm so glad I found this recipe! I'm going to make them this weekend. Question: Since I'm the only one in the house who eats crab cakes, can I freeze them? If so, should it be before or after air frying? Thanks. I am really enjoying your videos. I also visited the web site for the recipe, and I have a quibble. I don't see a print option, and can't even copy text and save it. I like to compile my recipes and that would be a nice option.
UPDATE: I made these tonight. I think I'll reduce the cayenne a bit, allow the crab to shine through better, but everything else was perfect. I ate two and I'm freezing the rest. Thanks for the recipe!

[@CookingwithCosori]

Hello! Yes you can freeze them, I would suggest freezing them before air frying. To freeze, place the uncooked crab cakes on a baking sheet in the freezer just until firm, about 2 hours. Wrap each cake in plastic wrap and place in a plastic freezer bag. When you are ready to air fry, cook them for 1-2 more minutes. So glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Sincerely,
Cosori Chef Margaret

So with the new Cosori Dual Blaze I won't have to preheat correct? Do I cook at the same amount of time?

[@CookingwithCosori]

Hi Sylvia! Correct you don't need to preheat with the new Cosori Dual Blaze air fryer. I suggest following the same time and temperature and removing the preheat step. Hope you give these a try!
Best,
Cosori Chef Margaret

[@noonshyne]

Could I substitute canned salmon?

[@CookingwithCosori]

Hi Chuck! We haven't tested using canned salmon in place of the crab, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work! If you give it a try please let us know how they turn out:)
Best,
Cosori Chef Margaret

[@Bamaboompa]

Since this is an official Cosori site, got a question:
I thought using an aerosol spray was a HUGE no-no for air fryers,
ruining the non-stick finish.
What's the "OFFICIAL" opinion?

[@SandyB4975]

You don’t have to flip?

[@CookingwithCosori]

Hi there Sandy! There's not need to flip since they do get golden on both sides without flipping. You also risk breaking them if you flip. We hope this helps!

Too much salt imo
