This recipe combines the comforting warmth of Cheddar Bay biscuits with the succulent goodness of lump crab meat, all crowned with a zesty lemon butter glaze. Let’s dive into the details and learn how to create this culinary masterpiece in your own kitchen.

Ingredients

  • 1 package Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
  • 1 tsp garlic
  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning

For the Crab Filling:

  • 1 pound lump crab meat, fully cooked
  • ¼ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ + cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp mustard
  • ½ sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed
  • 1 cup grated parmesan

For the Lemon Butter Glaze:

 

  • Melted butter
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Biscuit Mix: Start by making the Cheddar Bay biscuit mix according to the package directions. Once prepared, set it aside to rest while you prepare the crab filling.
  2. Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray two muffin tins with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
  3. Prepare the Crab Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat with paprika, onion powder, mustard, mayonnaise, and crushed Ritz crackers. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated. Adjust the consistency with additional mayonnaise if needed.
  4. Form the Biscuit Cups: Dust your hands with flour to prevent sticking. Using a scoop, take some biscuit mix and form it into a cup shape in your hand. Place a scoop of the prepared crab mixture into the center of the biscuit cup.
  5. Encase with Biscuit Dough: Cover the crab filling with a little more biscuit dough, sealing the edges to encase the filling completely. Repeat this process until all the dough and crab filling have been used.
  6. Bake: Carefully place each filled biscuit into the prepared muffin trays. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Add the Finishing Touch: While the biscuits are baking, prepare the lemon butter glaze by mixing melted butter with lemon juice. Once the biscuits are done, brush them generously with the lemon butter glaze for an extra burst of flavor.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Allow the Crab Stuffed Cheddar Bay Biscuits to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve warm for the ultimate indulgence.

Notes

  1. Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Sprinkle chopped parsley or dill over the Crab Stuffed Cheddar Bay Biscuits just before serving for a pop of color and added freshness.
  2. Pair with a Side Salad: Serve these decadent biscuits alongside a crisp green salad dressed with a light vinaigrette to balance out the richness of the dish.
  3. Serve with Dipping Sauces: Offer dipping sauces such as garlic aioli, tartar sauce, or sweet chili sauce on the side for an extra layer of flavor and variety.
  4. Create a Platter: Arrange the biscuits on a serving platter with lemon wedges and additional melted butter for guests to customize their experience.
  5. Make it a Brunch Affair: Serve Crab Stuffed Cheddar Bay Biscuits with Lemon Butter as part of a luxurious brunch spread alongside scrambled eggs, smoked salmon, and fresh fruit.
