Ingredients

  • 24 Baby Bella or white mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • cup cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel.
  • Carefully break off stems.
  • Chop stems extremely fine, discarding tough ends.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and chopped mushroom stems to the skillet. Stir often.
  • Fry until any moisture has disappeared, making sure to not burn the garlic. This will take about 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • When garlic and mushroom mixture is no longer hot, stir in cream cheese, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, black pepper, onion powder and cayenne pepper. Mixture should be very thick.
  • Using a small spoon, fill each mushroom cap with a generous amount of stuffing.
  • Arrange the mushroom caps in your greased air fryer basket.
  • Air fry at 370ºF for 6 minutes or until the mushrooms are piping hot and liquid starts to form under caps.

Notes

  • To prevent your mushrooms from falling sideways, use foil. 
  • Pick out mushrooms that have not started to turn brown or spoil. 
  • When cleaning, use a damp paper towel. Don’t soak them in water.
