Tortillas filled with creamy Dungeness crab, cheese, and spices—baked to golden perfection! 🦀✨

Ingredients

  • 16 ounces Wild Dungeness Crab Meat
  • 8 ounces whipped cream cheese
  • 3-6 flour tortillas
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup parmesan cheese
  • ½ tsp Old Bay seasoning
  • 2 green onions, diced
  • salt and pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper until smooth. Fold in the Dungeness crab meat, cheddar cheese, Parmesan, and green onions until well combined.
  3. Lay out a tortilla and spread a thin layer of the crab mixture evenly over the surface, leaving a ½-inch border.
  4. Roll up the tortilla tightly into a log, then wrap it in plastic wrap (Saran wrap) to hold its shape.
  5. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and refrigerate to firm up.
  6. Unwrap each log and slice crosswise into pinwheels. Arrange them cut-side up on the lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are crispy and golden brown.
  8. Serve warm with a side of garlic aioli, lemon wedges, or your favorite dipping sauce.
  9. Enjoy!
