Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Mini tartlet shells
- 1 cup Fresh lump crab meat
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the mini tartlet shells on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the crab meat, shredded cheddar cheese, lemon juice, green onions, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir gently to ensure all ingredients are evenly mixed.
Spoon the crab mixture into the tartlet shells, filling each shell generously.
Brush the edges of the tartlet shells lightly with melted butter to enhance browning.
Bake the tartlets in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the filling is warmed through and the edges of the tart shells are golden brown.
Remove the tartlets from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before garnishing with fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious crab tartlets!
