Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine crab meat, panko, onion, cilantro, mayonnaise, eggs, cumin, salt and cayenne. Scoop a heaping 1/2 cup crab mixture onto a flat surface and shape into a 3/4-inch thick patty; repeat with remaining ingredients. Coat tops of burgers with cooking spray and place on prepared pan sprayed side-down; coat other side of burgers with cooking spray.
Bake until bottoms are browned, about 10 minutes; carefully flip and cook until browned on other side, about 10 minutes more. Serve each burger on an English muffin, topped with 1 tablespoon guacamole and 1 piece each lettuce and tomato. Yields 1 burger per serving.
Notes
Crab burger patties can be prepared in advance to speed dinner prep. This mixture can also be used to make smaller Mexican crab cake appetizers – just reduce the cooking time to 12 minutes total.
