- 1 Tbsp avocado oil To coat the bottom and sides of your muffin pan

- Fill each cup in the muffin pan to 3/4 full.
- Bake in the oven at 375° for 25 minutes or until a clean knife comes out clean when inserted into the cake to make sure the eggs are fully cooked.
- Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes then remove shrimp cakes from the pan and onto plate for serving.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and extra green onion on top for garnish and place coconut aminos in a small cup on the side for dipping if desired.
Notes
*Baking times are based on convection oven temperature.
**Depending on the size of your muffin pan, you may need two pans for this recipe. It should make 12-18 shrimp cakes depending on size of the pan.
