Ingredients

• 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
• 1 cup Fresh lump crab meat
• 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 piece Egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to the package instructions until pliable.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, paprika, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated. Set aside.

Step 4

Roll out each puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface and cut into 3-inch squares, yielding approximately 24 squares in total.

Step 5

Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the crab mixture into the center of each square.

Step 6

Bring the corners of each square towards the center and pinch them together tightly to form a small pouch. Ensure the edges are sealed to prevent leakage during baking.

Step 7

Place the assembled puffs onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

Step 8

Brush the tops lightly with the beaten egg for a golden finish.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
