Tips:
- You can use canned crabmeat if fresh is unavailable, but be sure to drain and rinse it well before using.
- Be sure to handle the crabmeat gently so that it does not break apart too much.
- If you prefer a spicier flavor, add more hot sauce to the mixture.
- You can also make smaller crab cakes for appetizers or larger ones for a main course.
- For an even crispier texture, pan-fry the crab cakes in a small amount of oil before baking them in the oven.
