Baked Crab Dip image

We enjoyed this exquisite crab dip at my grandson's wedding reception. It looks fancy but is easy to make. You can even fill the bread bowl early in the day and chill it until serving. Just remove it from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. -Marie Shelley, Exeter, Missouri

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh crab meat. If you're using frozen crab meat, thaw it completely before using.
  • Be sure to drain the crab meat well before adding it to the bread mixture. Otherwise, the bread will be too wet and won't hold its shape.
  • Grate the cheese finely so that it melts evenly throughout the bread.
  • Don't overmix the bread dough. Overmixing will make the bread tough.
  • Let the bread dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will ensure that the bread is light and fluffy.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will give the bread a crispy crust and a tender interior.
  • Serve the bread warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Crab and cheese bread is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. It's perfect for parties and potlucks, and it's also a great way to use up leftover crab meat. With its combination of fresh crab, melted cheese, and flavorful herbs, crab and cheese bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
