These keto miso crab stuffed mushrooms are so juicy and exploding with umami flavor! Filled with crab, kewpie mayo, miso, parmesan, and a hint of sriracha, they are a perfect seafood appetizer for any occasion!
My entire family loves mushrooms. We usually either barbecue them on the grill or sauté them with garlic butter in a pan. Never did I ever think about stuffing them!
I was first introduced to stuffed mushrooms when my sister in law made some for thanksgiving.
Everyone raved about them so I thought why not make some and put my own spin on it!
Since mushrooms tend to contain a lot of liquid when cooked, I knew the stuffing had to be bold in flavor to balance the juiciness of the mushrooms.
I decided on a crab and miso mayo stuffing that actually turned out to be amazing!
These have become my new favorite way to eat mushrooms and my new favorite keto appetizer!
What kind of mushrooms do you recommend to use for crab stuffed mushrooms?
I prefer white button mushrooms but you can also use cremini mushrooms as well.
Are mushrooms keto low carb?
Mushrooms are very low in carbs (1 cup = 1.6 net carbs) and high in fiber making them a perfect addition to a keto or low carb diet.
What kind of mayo and miso do you recommend for miso crab stuffed mushrooms?
I use Kewpie mayo or Japanese mayo which tends to be a little more rich and creamy than American mayo.
The miso that we prefer is a brand called Marukome’s brown miso, however, most store bought miso’s work for this recipe.
Should I use fresh crab meat or canned crab for stuffed mushrooms?
If you have fresh crab meat, by all means use it! For the rest of you, canned crab meat works great!
Can I barbecue these crab stuffed mushrooms on the grill instead of baking them in the oven?
Yes, barbecue these over indirect heat for 10 minutes at 350-375 F with the cover closed.
For this dish, the special ingredient you would need is Kewpie Mayo, Miso and Sriracha, which you can get on Amazon or at a local Asian supermarket.
