Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh crabmeat (picked clean of shells)
- 1 loaf baguette
- 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons green onions (finely chopped)
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese (grated)
- 1 tablespoon parsley (chopped, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds, yielding about 16 slices.
Brush one side of each baguette slice with the melted butter, then arrange them butter-side up on a baking sheet.
Bake the baguette slices for 5 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.
Gently fold in the crabmeat and green onions, ensuring the mixture is evenly distributed without breaking up the crab too much.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture onto each toasted baguette slice.
Top each piece with a small sprinkle of the grated cheddar cheese.
Return the tray to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and transfer the Crabmeat Scooters to a serving platter.
Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley and serve warm.
