This Cajun Crab Dip is perfect for the holiday season! Just throw all the ingredients in a bowl, give it a stir, and pop it into the oven for 30 minutes!
This is a tasty and delicious party appetizer to serve to your guests during all your holiday get togethers!
You’d be hard pressed to find a party without a good dip on the table, especially during the holiday season when you need to feed a lot of people and you’re stretched to the max on energy. They are a great low-maintence option for holiday get togethers- throw some ingredients in a bowl, stir them together, and throw it in the oven. That’s it. Half an hour later, you’re good to go with a melty, cheesy bowl of dip that is absolutely loaded with crab.
I love this dip in particular because it’s so big on flavors. The cajun seasoning, horseradish and hot sauce really give this a spicy kick without being “too much.”
I served this with bagel chips, but would be great with crackers, pita chips or toast points. I have actually also topped baked fish with it, which has been really, really nice.

Sounds good! My questions are:
1) What size baking dish?
and
2) How many cups does this recipe make?
Can’t rate this as I haven’t made it.

Probably like a 9×9, or a pie dish? I would say it makes around 3 cups.
