Ingredients

Crab Dip Ingredients

  • 8 oz lump crab meat
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions, plus extra for garnish
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the dip.
  2. Mix Cream Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and Worcestershire sauce. Use a hand mixer or spatula to blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Crab Meat: Gently fold the lump crab meat into the cream mixture, taking care not to break up the crab too much to maintain texture.
  4. Incorporate Flavorings: Stir in the chopped green onions, garlic powder, and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
  5. Season: Taste the mixture and add salt and black pepper as needed to enhance the flavor.
  6. Prepare Baking Dish: Spoon the dip mixture into a greased baking dish and smooth the surface with a spatula for even cooking.
  7. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the dip is hot, bubbly, and has a slight golden hue on top.
  8. Cool and Garnish: Remove the dip from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra chopped green onions if desired.

Notes

  • Use lump crab meat for the best texture and flavor; canned crab can be a substitute but is less flavorful.
  • Adjust garlic powder and Worcestershire sauce to preference for spiciness and depth of flavor.
  • Serve warm with crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving again.
