"I was born in Maryland, and crab dip was served at all family functions since as long as I can remember. No "true" Baltimore native can NOT have a good recipe for crab dip. (It can be made using "low fat" sour cream, cream cheese, and cheddar cheese, but I always make this for parties, so I go for the full blown)!"

I would say this is good, not amazing, but is very easy to put together. The biggest appeal to this recipe was the lack of mayo. As a non-mayo person, it is really hard to find a good crab dip that doesn't call for it! I think you could make this better by simply adding salt & pepper, as well as perhaps using fresh garlic instead of powder. I will make again but will make enhancements for more flavor.

Very Easy to make and LOVED the fact that it contained NO MAYO!!!! First recipe I've found that did not call for it. I made this for an office pot-luck and everyone loved it! Will definitely make this again and it will become my "go to" recipe for hot crab dip!!

Fantastic! I had to substitute with dehydrated onion flakes and regular mustard, but it was still rich and delicious!

I've made this at least five times, it's that good! Used dry minced onion flakes, Old Bay and a touch of parmesan cheese to the other ingredients. I also use a wonderful canned lump crab from my local seafood counter. I've given this recipe to at least ten people. Also like that it has no mayo, a keeper!

Not good. I even tweaked it a bit as I was combining it because I could taste that it was boring. Won’t make it again.

Amazing! I never made anything with crab before, but this was so easy & so delicious! I made this for Christmas day to munch on as we opened gifts and such, and everyone went crazy for it! I used the canned crabmeat and dry onion powder instead of onions. I did use real garlic though instead of powder, and no mustard at all. It was absolutely wonderful -- thanks for sharing, this might become a Christmas tradition!
