Ingredients

• 227 grams Fresh crab meat (lump or claw)
• 115 grams Cream cheese, softened
• 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 30 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons Chives, finely chopped
• 1 loaf Baguette, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Step 3

Gently fold in the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped chives, ensuring the mixture is evenly incorporated without breaking up the crab meat too much.

Step 4

Slice the baguette into approximately 24 1/2-inch thick rounds. Arrange the slices on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Brush the top of each baguette slice with olive oil to help it crisp up during baking.

Step 6

Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture onto each baguette slice, spreading it slightly so it covers the top evenly.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the crab topping is bubbly and lightly golden, and the baguette slices are toasted.

Step 8

Remove the crabbetizers from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm, garnished with additional chives if desired. Enjoy your delicious, crowd-pleasing crabbetizers!
