Print Recipe

Baked Shrimp Toast is a delicious, crispy, and savory appetizer that combines creamy shrimp filling with golden, toasted bread. This dish is a modern twist on the classic shrimp toast, as it’s baked rather than fried, making it a lighter yet equally flavorful option. Each slice of bread is topped with a flavorful shrimp mixture, baked until golden and bubbly, and perfect for parties, snacks, or a simple indulgence. With its irresistible crunch and rich, savory flavor, this dish is guaranteed to impress your guests or satisfy your cravings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ pound raw shrimp, peeled, deveined, and finely chopped
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 large egg white, lightly beaten
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • 6 slices of white bread (or French baguette slices)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Ingredient Highlights

  • Shrimp: The star of the dish, providing a tender, juicy, and slightly sweet base for the topping.
  • Mayonnaise: Adds creaminess and richness to the shrimp mixture.
  • Sesame Oil: Provides a nutty, aromatic flavor that complements the shrimp perfectly.
  • Green Onions: Adds a fresh, zesty touch to balance the richness of the topping.
  • Bread: White sandwich bread or French baguette slices work best for a sturdy base that crisps up beautifully.

Instructions

Prepare the Shrimp Mixture:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Chop the Shrimp: Finely chop the shrimp until it resembles a coarse paste. You can use a knife or pulse a few times in a food processor.
  3. Combine the Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, mayonnaise, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, green onions, egg white, black pepper, and salt. Mix until well combined.

Assemble the Toasts:

  1. Prepare the Bread: Cut each slice of bread into 2-4 smaller pieces (or use French baguette slices). Arrange the bread on the prepared baking sheet.
  2. Spread the Mixture: Generously spread the shrimp mixture onto each piece of bread, making sure to cover it evenly.
  3. Add Sesame Seeds: Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of the shrimp mixture for added crunch and flavor (optional).

Bake the Shrimp Toast:

  1. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the shrimp topping is golden and cooked through. The bread should be crispy, and the topping should feel firm to the touch.
  2. Cool Slightly: Remove from the oven and let the shrimp toast cool for a minute or two before serving.
