Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 4 oz lump crab meat or canned crab, drained
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 green onions, minced
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 tsp seasoned salt
  • Optional: 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crab Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and mayonnaise until smooth and creamy. Fold in the crab meat, minced green onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, shredded cheddar cheese, and seasoned salt. If desired, add red pepper flakes for a spicy touch.
  2. Transfer to a Baking Dish: Spread the mixture evenly in a small oven-safe dish, smoothing the top with a spatula to ensure an even bake and good presentation.
  3. Bake Until Golden: Place the dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and lightly golden on top.
  4. Let It Cool Slightly Before Serving: Remove from the oven and allow the dip to rest for 5 minutes. This helps the flavors meld and makes it easier to scoop.

Notes

  • Use real lump crab meat for the best flavor and texture whenever possible.
  • Gently fold ingredients to keep crab pieces intact and improve presentation.
  • Make sure cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother dip.
  • Adjust heat by adding or reducing red pepper flakes or hot sauce to taste.
  • Serve the dip warm for the best creamy, cheesy experience.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to prevent curdling.
