The bake time needs to be cut back a bit. -1 minute on the first bake and -2 on the second. Tasted a little bland so I added some shredded cheese to the mix and a little more seasoning. Still hoping to improve it but overall, not bad for the first try. 3 out of 5 stars.

Meh....Wasn't great. Didn't care for the mayo in the mixture. Needed actual chunks of crab meat rather than canned crab. I was disappointed.
