Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Combine first 5 ingredients; stir well. Pick through crabmeat to remove any bits of shell and cartilage. Fold crabmeat into egg mixture. Spoon mixture into a lightly greased 1-quart baking dish.

Combine breadcrumbs and butter; sprinkle over crabmeat mixture.

Bake, uncovered, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges, if desired.
