For best results, use high-quality lump crab meat. Avoid claw meat, which will result in a less desirable texture. Do not overmix the crab cake mixture. Overmixing will result in tough crab cakes. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tartar sauce, remoulade, or cocktail sauce. A squeeze of lemon is also a perfect complement. To make ahead, shape the crab cakes and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking. Add a few minutes to the baking time. For a richer flavor, brown the melted butter before adding it to the egg mixture.
