Description

This Quick and Easy Air Fryer Mushrooms recipe delivers perfectly tender, flavorful mushrooms in just 18 minutes. Using simple spices like garlic, paprika, and Italian seasoning, these mushrooms are a fantastic side dish or snack, prepared effortlessly in the air fryer for a healthier, faster cooking method.


Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 pound button mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • Pinch of white or black pepper


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mushrooms: Start by rinsing the button mushrooms under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry thoroughly with a clean towel to ensure they crisp up nicely in the air fryer.
  2. Season: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mushrooms with olive oil, salt, granulated garlic, paprika, dried Italian seasoning, and a pinch of white or black pepper. Toss well to coat all mushrooms evenly with the seasoning and oil.
  3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 370°F (188°C) and allow it to preheat for about 3 minutes to ensure even cooking.
  4. Cook the Mushrooms: Place the seasoned mushrooms in the air fryer basket in a single layer to allow optimal air circulation. Cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure all sides cook evenly.
  5. Serve: Remove the mushrooms from the air fryer and transfer to a serving dish. Serve immediately as a delicious side or snack.

Notes

  • Make sure mushrooms are dry before seasoning to help them crisp rather than steam.
  • Adjust the seasoning to taste; you can add chili flakes for heat or fresh herbs for extra freshness.
  • For best results, do not overcrowd the air fryer basket.
  • This recipe is great for a quick appetizer or as a side dish to complement any meal.
