Step-by-Step Instructions
Prepare the filling
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, mayonnaise, Old Bay, garlic powder, lemon juice, green onion, and crab meat. Stir gently so the crab stays in chunks. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.Make the biscuit dough
Prepare Cheddar Bay biscuit mix according to package directions, folding in the shredded cheddar. The dough should be soft but not too sticky.Assemble the stuffed biscuits
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of biscuit dough and flatten slightly in your hand. Add 1 tablespoon of the crab filling in the center, then fold the dough over it and pinch the edges closed. Shape into a ball and place seam-side down on a lined baking sheet.Bake until golden
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15–18 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.Brush with garlic butter
Mix melted butter with garlic powder and parsley, then brush over the hot biscuits right out of the oven.Serve and enjoy
These biscuits are best served warm. Pair them with a fresh salad, a bowl of chowder, or enjoy them as appetizers on their own.
Tips for Success
Use lump crab meat for the best texture, but imitation crab works if you’re on a budget.
Don’t overfill the biscuits—just enough to get a creamy crab bite inside.
For extra richness, sprinkle a little extra cheddar on top before baking.
