Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, gently fold together the crab meat, mayonnaise, beaten egg, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and Old Bay seasoning. Stir cautiously to maintain crab lumps.
- Carefully form the mixture into four medium-sized or two large spherical shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Melt some butter and drizzle it over each crab bomb for added flavor and a golden finish.
- Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown and edges are slightly crisp. The aroma will signal they are done.
- Let them cool slightly before serving warm, ideally with fresh lemon wedges and a side salad or homemade tartar sauce.

Notes
Handle the crab meat gently to maintain its texture. Broiling for the last few minutes can enhance crispiness.
