Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup crab sticks shredded
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Cooking spray

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded crab sticks, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine all the dry ingredients.
  2. Gradually add the cold water to the mixture, stirring until a smooth batter forms. If the batter is too thick, add a little more water until it reaches a pourable consistency.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
  4. Using a spoon or a small ladle, pour small amounts of the batter into the air fryer basket, leaving space between each cracker. You may need to work in batches.
  5. Spray the tops of the crackers lightly with cooking spray for extra crispiness. Air fry for 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
  6. Once cooked, remove the crackers from the air fryer and let them cool on a wire rack. Repeat the process with any remaining batter.
  7. Serve the crispy crab stick crackers warm or at room temperature as a snack or appetizer.

Notes

  • For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the batter.
  • Try using different seasonings like Italian herbs or sesame seeds for a unique flavor twist.
