Recipe 1: Crab Cake Sandwiches

OVEN: Preheat oven to 375°F. Place crab cakes on a foil- or parchment-lined sheet pan in a single layer. Bake cakes for 12-14 minutes (or internal temperature reaches 160°F).

AIR FRYER: Preheat air fryer to 400°F. Cook crab cakes for 8-10 minutes until cooked through.

STOVETOP: Heat 2 tbsp oil* in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add crab cakes and lower heat to medium, using a spatula to gently flatten the crab cakes. Cook 5-6 minutes per side, or until internal temperature is 160°F. Transfer crab cakes to a paper towel-lined plate.

For the Corn:

STOVETOP: Remove any husks from the corn. Add corn to a pot and cover with water. Add 1-½ tbsp kosher salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 1-2 minutes until corn is just tender. Remove to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

MICROWAVE: Remove any husks from the corn. Wrap corn cobs individually with damp paper towels and place on a microwave-safe plate. Cook on high for 3-4 minutes, cooking an additional minute if needed.

To Assemble:

Preheat oven to broil. Spread the butter evenly on cut-side of buns and place under broiler about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
