Crab Cake Mixture

For Baking

Method

Prep the Crab Cake Mixture

  1. 1

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the fresh lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, chopped parsley, green onions, beaten egg, breadcrumbs, salt, and black pepper. Be careful to keep the crab meat intact while mixing.

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

    Once the mixture is well combined, use your hands to form the mixture into 8 equal-sized cakes, about 1 inch thick. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake the Crab Cakes

  1. 3

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 4

    Prepare for Baking

    Drizzle the olive oil over the crab cakes, ensuring they are well coated. This will help them brown nicely in the oven.

  3. 5

    Bake the Cakes

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crab cakes are golden brown and heated through.

Serve

  1. 6

    Plate and Garnish

    Remove the crab cakes from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and serve warm with lemon wedges on the side.
