Ingredients

Scale

For the Mushroom Caps:

  • 20 large button mushrooms (washed, stems removed)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt & pepper to taste

For the Filling:

  • 1 cup fresh crab meat (or high-quality canned crab)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Optional Topping:

  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp almond flour
  • A pinch of paprika

Instructions

  • Prep the Mushrooms
    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Remove mushroom stems and chop them finely. Brush the mushroom caps with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Arrange them on a baking sheet.
  • Make the Filling
    In a mixing bowl, combine crab meat, cream cheese, chopped mushroom stems, mozzarella, mayonnaise, minced garlic, parsley, paprika, onion powder, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix until smooth.
  • Stuff the Mushrooms
    Spoon the filling into each mushroom cap, making sure they’re well-packed. If using the optional topping, mix Parmesan, almond flour, and paprika in a small bowl, and sprinkle over the stuffed mushrooms.
  • Bake
    Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the tops are golden and bubbly.
  • Cool & Serve
    Let the mushrooms cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.

Notes

  • Use fresh crab meat for the best flavor, but canned crab works too.
  • You can prepare the filling ahead of time and store it in the fridge until ready to stuff the mushrooms.
  • For a spicier version, add diced jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • Avoid microwaving leftovers to prevent the mushrooms from turning rubbery. Reheat in the oven for best results.
