Parmesan Crab Bites
This simple-to-make appetizer served on bread slices is perfect comfort food, without all the fat.
Servings: 8 servings (2 pieces per serving)
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
- ½ cup milk
- 1 tablespoon dry white wine
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup flaked crab meat (fresh will be better than canned, but you can use either)
- 16 slices French bread (baguette size is good)
- ½ cup shredded, fresh Parmesan
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to broil.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the butter and milk over low heat until thick. Add the wine, salt and crab meat and stir until mixed; remove from heat.
- Spread the mixture on the bread slices. Place on a baking sheet and sprinkle with cheese; broil until the cheese melts. Serve immediately.
Notes
- You can serve this on crackers instead of bread if you'd like.
