Cheesy Tomato and Crab Biscuit Cups

More tomato biscuits! But this time they’re not scones. They’re cups. Cuppies. Cups. We’ll say cups.

And they have crab in them. Imitation! Look, your reaction to the lobster lettuce cups made it clear to me that we all seem to be on this side of snooty booty camp, so we’re having some more, man. Plus lots of you suggested I do something with crab, so here we are! Little brunchy biscuit cups filled with chopped crab, shredded mozzarella and quartered, ripe cherry tomatoes off the vine. Don’t even look down your nose at this. YEW BETTER DON’T. (<–I told you that story, right?)

Let us peepeth.

Four ingredients. That’s all she wrote. This is almost too simple to even post, but I know we’re all here for the SS recipes.

What’s SS? Stupid Simple. I made that up just now. Testing it out. What do we think?

Also in the photo there are way more than six biscuits. Will decided he needed biscuits, but didn’t want “that weird crab stuff” in them, so I stuffed the mix into six. You’re welcome to spread it out over ten if you need. This is your life.

So we’ve finely chopped the flake crab. We’ve grated the mozzarella. And we’ve quartered the tomatoes. That’s honestly the leg work of this. Chop, grate, quarter. SS.

Remember what that means? Never mind.

Mixy mix. It will feel wet due to the juicy tomatoes, but it all bakes in here in a bit and it’s just fantastically luscious.

So then we’ll press the little biscuits into a muffin tray. Then scoop the mix in. Pile it on as much as you crave and desire.

Oh! I salted that little mix up there. Pinch of salt, of course.

Hellooooooooo there.

This was about 13 minutes total. The biscuits are cooked through, the mixture is perfectly baked and the cheese is melty and bubbled up into submission. You’ll just pop those out with the tip of a knife and get them arranged on a plate or cutting board. However you roll in your hizz.

GORGEOUS. Let’s chop parsley and violently garnish. They’re hot right now, so let them sit for a few minutes before tearing in. Because you’ll want to tear in.

Who knew four ingredients would become so tearable-innable?

I love these as a brunch idea! Eggs and coffee on the side.

And of course I’m not forcing you to add crab. I just think the sweetness is a nice touch in these savory biscuit cups. But leave them out and go straight summer if you’re feeling it. I’m breezy!

You could even get a bit fancier and use real crab and like, a gruyere or something. This is the budget-friendly version, but go wild, bruh! Get creative with these, however you like.

We need to tear in.

It’s time.

Hold me.

    Maybe it’s because I’m from Europe, but no, we’re not doing SS. Definitely not. Absolutely not.

    yummy, reminds me of a kinda similar crab-cream cheese English muffin dish I used to eat, and biscuits are tastier, so even better, thank you

    I love recipes like yours as its great as written but it's literally a diving board into cooking exploration... I didn't have any canned biscuits but I did have a box of mix that are like that 🦞 place. I used some swiss cheese (just cause I like it better) and also I added some chopped green onions to the mix. I free formed mine using my ice cream scoop to get 10 almost equal size biscuits drizzled them with garlic butter and ba bam...Mind blowing delicious 😋 these are going to get made over and over now! Thanks for getting me up on the high dive to deliciousness!!
