With a rubber spatula or large spoon, very gently and carefully fold together. You don't want to break up that crab meat.
Cover tightly and refrigerate for a least 30 minutes and up to 1 day.
Preheat oven to 450º. Generously grease a rimmed baking sheet with butter or nonstick spray or line with a silicone baking mat.
Using a 1/2 cup measuring cup, portion the crab cake mixture into 6 mounds on the baking sheet. Don't flatten. Compact each mound to there are any lumps sticking out or falling apart. For extra flavor brush each with melted butter.
Bake for 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges and on top. Drizzle each with fresh lemon juice and serve warm.
Cover any leftovers and refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for u to 3 months.
