What a busy week this has been! It seems like I have been around the world and back, while in actuality, I’ve only been on a couple of business trips.
It’s the perfect time to reward myself with a delicious crab stuffed mushrooms recipe. This is my husband’s favorite crab stuffed mushroom appetizer.
They’re full of seafood flavor and the stuffing in the perfect blend of crispy and creamy. Let’s get started so you can try this crab stuffed mushroom recipe for yourself.
How to Make Crab Stuffed Mushrooms:
First, gather all your ingredients and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Second, prepare a cast iron skillet or 8 x 8 baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Third, chop the mushrooms stems to add to the stuffing.
Afterward, combine mushroom stems, butter, onion, fish or seafood seasoning, salt, crab meat, egg, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and green bell pepper in a large bowl.
Then, mix all the ingredients for the crab stuffed mushrooms recipe until well combined. Feel free to use your hands or a spatula.
Either way, just make sure everything is properly mixed.
Now, using a spoon fill each mushroom cap, rounding off the top.
After that, lightly spray tops of stuffed mushrooms to assist with browning.
Last, place pan in the oven for 25 minutes or until filling is golden brown.
Remove them and serve immediately. Storage is not recommended as the mushrooms could become soggy.

Lost the recipe for my stuffed mushrooms, so I made these Christmas Day 2019. Thirty nine people over for dinner. They all raved. I’m glad I lost the other recipe. Impressed the in-laws.

Added a bit of Old Bay but otherwise followed the recipe as written. Was the appetizer for our Christmas dinner and they were a hit even with my occasionally picky boys. Thanks for the recipe.
