How to Make Famous Crab Bombs
- Mix the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine crab meat, cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, and chosen seasonings until everything is well blended and creamy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Shape the Bombs: Use your hands to form the mixture into small balls, about 1-2 inches in diameter. Keep them uniform to ensure even cooking.
- Prepare for Breading: Set up a breading station by placing beaten eggs in one bowl and gluten-free breadcrumbs in another. Dip each crab ball in the eggs first, then roll them in breadcrumbs until fully coated.
- Heat the Oil: In a frying pan, heat oil over medium heat until shimmering—this usually takes about 5 minutes.
- Fry the Crab Bombs: Carefully place the breaded crab bombs in the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Don’t overcrowd the pan.
- Drain and Serve: Once fried, drain your crab bombs on paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve them hot alongside your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color. Store cooked crab bombs in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Best enjoyed fresh out of the fryer.
