Description

Make cheesy, savory stuffed mushrooms quickly in your air fryer. This recipe features a rich cheddar filling coated in aromatic garlic butter for a perfect appetizer.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound cremini or white button mushrooms, stems removed
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

  1. Clean the mushrooms by wiping them gently with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and finely chop the stems.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and minced garlic. Set aside half of this mixture for brushing later.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix the chopped mushroom stems, Parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, panko breadcrumbs, parsley, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add the first half of the garlic butter mixture to the cheese and stem mixture. Stir until everything is well combined.
  5. Spoon the filling evenly into the mushroom caps, mounding it slightly.
  6. Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) for 3 minutes.
  7. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not touch. You may need to cook in batches.
  8. Brush the tops of the filled mushrooms lightly with the remaining garlic butter mixture.
  9. Air fry for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the mushroom edges are slightly browned.
  10. Carefully remove from the air fryer and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Wipe mushrooms clean instead of washing them to prevent them from absorbing excess water, which can make them soggy.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of dried thyme or oregano to the stuffing mixture.
  • If your cheese browns too quickly, reduce the air fryer temperature to 360 degrees Fahrenheit for the last few minutes of cooking.
