Description
Buttery garlic bread stuffed with creamy crab and shrimp filling – the ultimate appetizer or party snack with bold coastal flavor.
Ingredients
For the Seafood Filling:
4 oz cooked shrimp, finely chopped
4 oz lump crab meat (drained and picked over)
4 oz cream cheese, softened
2 tbsp mayonnaise
1/2 tsp Old Bay seasoning (or Cajun seasoning)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese
1 green onion, finely chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Bread Bombs:
1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough (8 count)
3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp fresh parsley or chives, chopped
Optional: Extra shredded cheese for topping
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mix together all filling ingredients until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Flatten each biscuit into a 4-inch round disk using your hands or a rolling pin.
Place about 1 tablespoon of seafood filling into the center of each disk.
Carefully pinch the edges to seal and form into a ball. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
Mix melted butter, garlic powder, and chopped herbs. Brush over each stuffed dough ball.
Optional: Sprinkle with a bit of shredded cheese on top for extra melty flavor.
Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Serve warm with lemon wedges, cocktail sauce, or garlic aioli.
Notes
Use pre-cooked shrimp and canned crab for ease, or sauté your own seafood for extra freshness.
Don’t overfill the bombs to avoid leakage during baking.
Great for prepping ahead—assemble and refrigerate until ready to bake!
