CHEESY CRAB POPPERS
Monday, March 18, 2019
Edit
I made these Cheesy Crab Poppers on a whim a few days ago because they are really quite easy, but I never had any intention of sharing them with you this quickly, mainly because I don’t usually rush to put up recipes. (I have a little back log and I try to go in order). That being said, after I took one bite of a crabby, cheesy, cornbread-y ball, I knew I had to get into the spirit of Christmas and give the gift of tastiness to all of my friends immediately.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 package (~10 oz) of lump crab meat
- 1 box of Jiffy cornmuffin mix
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 8oz package of cream cheese, softened at room temperature
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 stick of unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- Pinch of salt
- Canola oil, for frying
INSTRUCTIONS
- Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.
- Roll the mixture into balls, just slightly smaller than the size of golf balls. Set on parchment paper or a baking sheet.
- In a large, high walled pot or a wok, heat oil over medium-high. You want to make sure there is enough oil to cover 2/3 of the crab balls.
