Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon hot sauce
- 1 pound fresh lump crab meat
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup finely chopped chives plus more for garnish
Instructions
- Mix creamy ingredients. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Once the cream cheese is softened to room temperature, add it to a large mixing bowl with the sour cream, mayonnaise, Old Bay Seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and hot sauce. Stir or use a hand mixer to combine.
- Stir in crab. Add the crab meat, ½ cup of cheddar cheese, and the chives, then stir together again.
- Bake. Spread the cold crab dip into a 9" round baking dish and sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of cheddar cheese on top. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until it's hot and bubbly.
- Serve. Garnish with additional chopped chives and serve warm with crackers, chips, or sliced veggies.

Notes
- Absolutely grain-free flatbreads
- Crunchmaster multi-grain crackers
- Mary's seed crackers
- For gluten-free crackers: I love Absolutely grain-free flatbreads, Crunchmaster multi-grain crackers, or Mary's seed crackers.
- Storing leftovers in the fridge: This will stay good for 3 to 4 days in an airtight container. And since it has dairy in it, ensure it stays cold to prevent spoilage. I don't recommend freezing this as it can alter the texture.
- Make-Ahead Tip #1: You can assemble the crab dip mixture up to 24 hours in advance, cover it tightly, and refrigerate. When ready to serve, bake it straight from the fridge, but add a few extra minutes to the baking time since the mixture will be chilled.
- Make-Ahead Tip #2: Bake the dip a few hours earlier and store it in the fridge. When ready to serve, reheat it in the oven at 190°C (375°F) until warmed through.
