For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the crabmeat mixture.
To prevent the mushrooms from becoming soggy, bake them on a wire rack set inside a baking sheet.
These can be assembled ahead of time and baked just before serving. Add a few minutes to the baking time if starting with cold mushrooms.
Use high-quality jumbo lump crabmeat for the best flavor and texture.
Try using different types of mushrooms, such as portobello or shiitake, for a unique twist.
