- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

- 4 English muffins

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold in the lump crab meat and chopped green onions, making sure not to break the crab meat apart too much.
Slice the English muffins in half and spread a thin layer of softened butter on each half.
Place the buttered English muffin halves on the prepared baking sheet, buttered side facing up.
Spoon an even amount of the crab mixture onto each English muffin half, spreading it to cover the surface fully.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and bubbly.
Remove the Crab Crispies from the oven and allow them to cool for 2-3 minutes on the baking sheet.
Slice each English muffin half into quarters and serve warm as delicious bite-sized appetizers.
