How to make it keto
Explicitly request 'no breadcrumbs' or 'keto crab cakes' if available. Confirm aioli is homemade and sugar-free. Ask if they can be pan-seared instead of deep-fried.
Watch out for
Traditional crab cakes use significant breadcrumbs. Pre-made aioli or tartar sauce often contains sugar. Deep frying can add unwanted breading.
