Ingredients

  • 1 package Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

For the Crab Filling:

  • 1 pound lump crab meat, fully cooked

  • ¼ teaspoon paprika

  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

  • ½ cup mayonnaise (plus more if needed)

  • 1 tablespoon mustard

  • ½ sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed

  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

For the Lemon Butter:

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Biscuit Mix: Make the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix according to package directions and set aside.

  2. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and spray two muffin tins with nonstick spray.

  3. Make the Crab Filling: In a bowl, combine the lump crab meat, paprika, onion powder, mustard, mayonnaise, and crushed Ritz crackers. Stir until well combined, adding a touch more mayonnaise if needed to achieve a creamy texture.

  4. Form the Biscuits: Using a scoop, take some of the biscuit mix and place it in your hand dusted with flour, forming a cup shape.

  5. Stuff the Biscuits: Take a scoop of the crab mixture and place it into the center of the biscuit cup. Cover the crab filling with a little more biscuit dough, sealing it well. Repeat until all the dough and crab filling are used.

  6. Bake the Biscuits: Place each stuffed biscuit into the prepared muffin trays and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

  7. Prepare the Lemon Butter: While the biscuits are baking, mix together the melted butter and lemon juice.

  8. Brush with Lemon Butter: Once the biscuits are done, remove them from the oven and brush the tops with the lemon butter mixture for an added burst of flavor.
