    1/2 cup butter, separated
    2 white onions, finely chopped
    4 stalks celery, finely chopped

    of butter until softened.
    Pour onions, celery and butter over bread mixture and mix to combine.
    IF bread mixture is cooled, add crabmeat, mustard and eggs.
    Stir to combine-but not too much-you don't want to totally separate the crab chunks.

    Sprinkle bread crumbs on top.
    Bake ramekins for about 8 minutes//Bake casserole for 20 minutes.
    Spread mayonnaise on top of cooked deviled crab.
    Serve warm.
