My mom made these when I was a little girl, and I've always loved them. Mom always served them for dinner, but they would also be great for a brunch, or lunch. Now that I'm an adult, this was one of the recipes that was important for me to get and keep for the generations to come. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to add hot sauce or red pepper if you prefer a kick in your sandwich.

Time 35m

Yield 12 muffins, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 English muffins
8 ounces crabmeat, cooked
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 onion, medium, chopped
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups milk
2 1/2 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated plus more for topping
paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Split english muffins, and place on a greased baking sheet.
  • Combine crab, mayo, and onion. Mix until completely combined. (You may add more or less mayo depending on how "wet" you like this mixture.).
  • Taste, and add salt and pepper as necessary.
  • Spread crab mixture evenly over the muffin halves.
  • In a small saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter.
  • Add the flour, and whisk to combine. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Stir in milk, and whisk to keep lumps from forming.
  • When milk is hot (DO NOT BOIL), add the cheese, continuing to stir constantly, until the cheese is fully melted, and the sauce thickens.
  • Taste, and add salt and pepper as necessary.
  • Top the muffins with the sauce.
  • Sprinkle with extra cheese to taste, and with paprika for color.
  • Bake at 350 F for 20 minutes, or until the sauce is golden and bubbly.
  • Serve immediately.

These crab sandwiches were amazing! The crab salad was creamy and flavorful, and the toasted bread was the perfect complement. I will definitely be making these again.

These crab sandwiches were just okay. The crab salad was a bit too mayonnaise-y for my taste, and the toasted bread was a bit too dry. I think I would try making them again with less mayonnaise and a different type of bread.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The crab salad was lacking in flavor, and the toasted bread didn't add much. I think I would try adding some Old Bay seasoning or other spices to the crab salad next time.

These crab sandwiches were a bit too messy for my taste. The crab salad was delicious, but it fell out of the sandwich every time I took a bite. I think I would try making them again with less mayonnaise, or maybe using a different type of bread.

I've made these crab sandwiches several times now, and they're always a crowd-pleaser. The crab salad is light and flavorful, and the toasted bread adds a nice touch. I usually serve them with a side of coleslaw and potato chips.
