Ingredients

Scale

Fresh Mushrooms

  • 12 large cremini or portobello mushrooms

Crab Meat

  • 8 oz fresh or canned crab meat

Cream Cheese

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened

Garlic

  • 2 cloves minced garlic

Green Onions

  • 2 chopped green onions

Parmesan Cheese

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Breadcrumbs

  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mushrooms: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove the stems, creating a hollow space for the filling.
  2. Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, crab meat, minced garlic, chopped green onions, Parmesan cheese, and breadcrumbs. Mix until well combined and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Stuff the Mushrooms: Generously spoon the crab mixture into each mushroom cap, pressing down gently to fill them completely.
  4. Bake: Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.

Notes

  • Choose mushrooms that are firm and free from blemishes for the best results.
  • Fill the mushrooms generously, but avoid overfilling as this can lead to spillage while baking.
  • Allow the mushrooms to cool slightly before serving to let the flavors meld together.
  • Consider adding additional cheese or herbs on top before baking for an extra flavor boost.
  • Keep an eye on them while baking, as different sizes of mushrooms may require slightly different cooking times.
