Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade), pre-baked

  • 1 cup lump crab meat (fresh or canned, drained)

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • ½ cup mayonnaise

  • 2 large eggs

  • ½ cup whole milk or cream

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

  • 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning (or paprika + celery salt)

  • ¼ tsp black pepper

  • 12 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or green onion (optional)


Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat oven: Set to 350°F (175°C). Pre-bake the pie crust for 8–10 minutes if not already done.

2️⃣ Mix filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, eggs, milk, lemon juice, Old Bay, and pepper. Stir in chopped onion, cheese, and crab meat. Add parsley if using.

3️⃣ Assemble pie: Pour the crab mixture into the pre-baked pie crust and smooth the top.

4️⃣ Bake: Bake for 35–40 minutes until set and lightly golden on top. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

5️⃣ Serve: Garnish with extra parsley and serve warm or at room temperature with a green salad or cornbread.

Notes

  • Use claw meat for a more budget-friendly option.

  • Add a pinch of cayenne or hot sauce for heat.

  • Great served warm, chilled, or as leftovers!
