Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 pound Lump crab meat
- 3 Green onions, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)
- 1 cup Bread crumbs (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a medium-sized baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Beat with a hand mixer or stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, and lump crab meat. Stir gently to ensure the crab meat stays in chunks.
Add green onions, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, lemon juice, and hot sauce (if using). Mix thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs and melted butter. Stir until the bread crumbs are well-coated.
Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the top of the crab dip.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with crackers, sliced baguette, or your favorite veggies for dipping.
