Instructions
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2: Make the Biscuits
In a large bowl, combine the Bisquick mix, shredded cheddar cheese, milk, melted butter, garlic powder, and Old Bay seasoning. Stir until just combined (do not overmix). Step 3: Prepare the Crab Filling
In a medium bowl, combine the crab meat, cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, green onions, lemon zest, salt, and pepper until creamy and well combined.
Step 4: Assemble the Biscuits
Take a tablespoon of biscuit dough and flatten it slightly in your palm.
Add a teaspoon of the crab filling to the center, then top with another small piece of dough, pressing the edges to seal.
Place the filled biscuits on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5: Bake
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Step 6: Make the Lemon Butter Sauce
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the lemon juice, garlic powder, and paprika. Heat until just warmed through.
Step 7: Serve
Brush the warm biscuits with the lemon butter sauce before serving. Garnish with extra green onions or parsley for a fresh touch.
Tips:
For an extra cheesy touch, sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese on top before baking.
Use lump crab meat for the best texture and flavor.
Serve with a salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
Enjoy these savory and decadent biscuits that are sure to impress! 🥰✨
