How to Make Slow Cooker Hot Crab Dip

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Spray a 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix until well blended.
  4. Spread 1/2 cup slivered almonds in an ungreased shallow pan and toast in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through, until lightly golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  5. Gently stir in 1 1/2 pounds lump crab meat and the toasted almonds into the cheese mixture.
  6. Spoon the crab mixture into the prepared slow cooker.
  7. Cover and cook on low for 1 hour, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the dip is heated through. Stir gently halfway through.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite crackers, baguette slices, or vegetable sticks.
  9. The dip will hold in the slow cooker for up to 3 hours on the warm setting.
