Making Crab Crunchies is straightforward if you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Crab: In a large bowl, combine the fresh crab meat, ensuring there are no shell pieces.
2. Mix the Ingredients: Add the breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the bowl.
3. Incorporate Eggs: Beat the eggs in a separate bowl and then add them to the crab mixture. Combine everything gently until well mixed.
4. Shape the Mixture: Using your hands, form small balls or patties from the mixture, about 1 to 2 inches in diameter.
5. Heat the Oil: In a large frying pan, heat about ½ inch of oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
6. Fry the Crab Crunchies: Carefully place a few crab balls in the pan, ensuring not to overcrowd. Fry until golden brown for about 3-4 minutes per side.
7. Drain Excess Oil: Once browned, remove the crab crunchies and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
8. Repeat: Continue frying the remaining crab balls until all are cooked.
9. Serve Warm: Transfer the hot Crab Crunchies to a serving platter for immediate enjoyment.

These easy steps will lead to delightful bites that everyone will love.
