🧂 Ingredients (9 Total)
1 lb lump crab meat – The star of the recipe; use lump for the best texture.
1 large egg – Helps bind the mixture without making it dense.
1 tbsp Dijon mustard – Adds tang and depth.
1/4 cup mayonnaise – Keeps the crab bombs moist and rich.
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce – Enhances savory seafood flavor.
1/4 tsp black pepper – Light seasoning to let the crab shine.
1 tsp Old Bay seasoning – Classic flavor boost for seafood.
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs – Gives structure while keeping the texture airy.
2 tbsp unsalted butter – For pan-searing to golden perfection.
🔥 Instructions
In a bowl, whisk the egg, Dijon, mayo, Worcestershire, black pepper, and Old Bay.
Gently fold in the lump crab meat and panko, being careful not to break the crab pieces.
Shape into 4–6 large crab bombs.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat.
Cook crab bombs for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden and heated through.
💡 Pro Tips
Do not overmix — the lighter the touch, the fluffier the crab bombs.
Chill the formed bombs for 10 minutes to help them hold shape.
🍽️ Serving Suggestion
Serve with lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or a drizzle of melted garlic butter. Perfect with a fresh salad or roasted potatoes.
