Ingredients
- 16 oz baby bella mushrooms wiped clean and cut in halves
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1-2 garlic cloves pressed
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Clean the mushrooms using a lightly damp paper towel. Then trim a few centimeters off the ends and slice the mushrooms in halves.
- Add the mushrooms to a large bowl and combine them with olive oil, pressed garlic, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Use your clean hands to combine everything well.
- Preheat your air fryer to 380 degrees and cook the seasoned mushrooms in a single layer for about 5 minutes.
- Give it a good shake and cook for another 5-8 minutes. You may want to cook in 2 separate batches depending on the size of your air fryer. Once the mushrooms are cooked, garnish with some fresh parsley (optional) and serve warm.
Notes
- Pat the mushrooms dry- Doing this makes it easier for the oil and seasonings to stick to the mushrooms.
- Preheat the air fryer- If the temp is too low, the mushrooms will steam, losing that crisp outer layer. So make sure it is at the correct temperature before adding the mushrooms.
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket- To avoid undercooking the air fryer mushrooms, place them in a single layer in the basket so the hot air can circulate easily.
- Do them in batches- You may want to cook in 2 separate batches depending on the size of your air fryer so that they lay in a single layer.
