Mini cakes are a great snack or an addition to a dish. It is easy to make them since all you have to do is mix all the ingredients together and then make the patties. Usually, mini cakes are associated with small sweet deserts, but they can be savory, too. And I just love the following savory mini cakes recipe with crab and leeks. Since you need to cook them for about eight to nine minutes, you will have your breakfast or a snack ready in no time. They are easy and fast to make. And because they are bite-size, they are great not only for the adults but also for the kids.
