Air Fryer Mushroom Recipe
Description
Fresh mushrooms are wiped clean before tossing in a blend of olive oil, garlic powder, Italian herb mix, sea salt, and black pepper. This light coating ensures the mushrooms absorb seasoning evenly. Preheating the air fryer helps create an optimal cooking environment for even heat distribution.
Air frying at high heat (400-450°F) for about 15 minutes, with stirring every 5 minutes, encourages even cooking and browning. The mushrooms release moisture, shrink in size, and develop a concentrated, richer flavor with a slightly crisped surface. Stirring prevents burning and promotes uniform caramelization.
These seasoned air-fried mushrooms can be served as a side dish, added to salads, or enjoyed as a savory snack. Their herb-infused, garlicky flavor profile enhances the natural earthiness of the mushrooms while the air fryer method provides a quicker alternative to roasting or sautéing.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive avocado, or other oil
- 1 pound mushrooms wiped clean, stems removed (optional to remove stems)
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons italian herbs mix
- 1 teaspoon sea salt + more to taste if desired, Celtic variety
- 1 teaspoon black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add mushrooms.
- In a small bowl, combine herbs and olive oil. Drizzle over mushrooms, tossing as you go, to coat in oil and herbs.
- Preheat air fryer for 5 minutes on high.
- Add mushrooms to air fryer basket and set to high (400-450 degrees, depending on your fryer.)
- Cook 15 minutes, stirring at five minutes to check cook time, then stir again at 10 minutes. Go by color of the mushrooms - you want them to look smaller (meaning they gave off water) and have a darker color with browning.
- Remove and serve!
