For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the crumb mixture.
Fresh thyme or parsley, finely chopped, can be sprinkled over the oysters before adding the final crumb layer for an herbaceous note.

If you prefer a softer topping, reduce the amount of melted butter slightly.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor. Pairs wonderfully with a crisp white wine.
