How to Make Crabbies

  1. Soften the margarine and cheddar cheese. You can do this by leaving them at room temperature for about 30 minutes or by microwaving in short bursts, stirring frequently, until softened but not melted.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the softened margarine, cheese, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and seasoned salt. Mix until well combined.
  3. Gently fold in the drained crabmeat.
  4. Spread the crab mixture evenly onto the split English muffins.
  5. Cut each English muffin into quarters.
  6. Arrange the Crabbies in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for at least 2 hours, or until solid.
  7. Once frozen, transfer the Crabbies to a freezer-safe bag for longer storage.
  8. When ready to serve, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the frozen Crabbies for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy!
