Ingredients

• 8 ounces Lump crabmeat
• 4 ounces Cream cheese
• 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoons Hot sauce
• 2 tablespoons Green onion (finely chopped)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (finely chopped)
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 20 slices Baguette slices (1/4 inch thick)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and hot sauce. Stir until smooth and evenly mixed.

Step 3

Fold in the crabmeat gently to avoid breaking it apart. Add the chopped green onion, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix lightly until just combined.

Step 4

Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet. Lightly brush both sides of each slice with olive oil.

Step 5

Place the baking sheet in the oven and toast the baguette slices for 5 minutes. Flip them over and toast for an additional 3-5 minutes or until lightly golden and crisp.

Step 6

Remove the toasted slices from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.

Step 7

Spread a generous amount of the crabmeat mixture onto each toasted baguette slice.

Step 8

Optional: Place the assembled canapés under the broiler for 1-2 minutes until the topping is warm and slightly browned.

Step 9

Garnish with additional chopped parsley or a pinch of paprika if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Crabmeat Canapés!
