Keto Mini Crab Cakes w Cajun Mayo
This recipe serves as either a snack or a party appetizer. Mini crab cakes make great finger food and can easily be keto-friendly without your non-keto friends/family noticing. Paired on the side is a warm dish of cajun mayo dipping sauce, adding a little extra heat and citrus flavor.

Does the sauce start with the 4 tbsp of Mayo?

I did pork rinds instead of almond flour. And added an egg to help bind. Baked them for 30 since mine were larger. Broiled them for a couple minutes at the end for a little more color. Fantastic!
