Creamy Crab Stuffed Mushroom (20 minutes!)

I’ve been CRAVING these Creamy Crab Stuffed Mushroom since my honeymoon.

If you are looking for the perfect holiday appetizer, look no further, this Creamy Crab Stuffed Mushroom is the ultimate crowd-pleaser and is super easy to make at home.

It takes less than 20 minutes to complete, and these are the perfect finger food to bring to any dinner party. 

I had Creamy Crab Stuffed Mushrooms on my honeymoon in Hawaii at a local Japanese restaurant, and I’ve been craving it ever since.

After coming back, I started playing around with the recipe, and after a few trials and errors, this is my final version that is super easy and delicious!

You can make these in bulk in less than 20 minutes, making them the perfect holiday appetizer. 

To make Creamy Crab Stuffed Mushrooms, you will need imitation crab meat, Japanese mayo, mushroom, masago, cream cheese, and ponzu.

Think of sushi bake, but stuffed inside a mushroom.

Any mushroom will work; you can use shiitake mushroom, oyster mushroom, crimini, mushroom, or king mushroom.

I recommend using mushrooms that can hold their shape during baking, such as crimini and shiitake mushrooms. 

If you are hosting a dinner party, you can make Creamy Crab Stuffed Mushrooms ahead of time and pop them into an oven before your guests arrive.

Pre-stuff all the mushrooms to save time, and once the guests arrive, pop them into the oven for 15 minutes, and they will come out nice and creamy.

To serve, garnish with more masago and shredded seaweed. These mushrooms are the perfect crowd-pleasing appetizers to make this holiday season!
