Make perfectly crispy mushrooms coated in garlic and Parmesan cheese using your air fryer. This recipe provides simple steps for a flavorful side dish or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb cremini mushrooms, wiped clean and halved or quartered if large
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Wipe the mushrooms clean. Cut large mushrooms into halves or quarters so pieces are roughly the same size.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  3. In a separate bowl, toss the mushrooms with olive oil until lightly coated.
  4. Add the oiled mushrooms to the flour mixture. Toss well until all mushrooms are evenly coated with the dry mixture.
  5. Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (195°C) for 3 minutes.
  6. Place the coated mushrooms in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Do not overcrowd; work in batches if necessary.
  7. Air fry for 8 minutes.
  8. Open the basket, sprinkle half of the Parmesan cheese over the mushrooms, and gently shake the basket.
  9. Continue to air fry for another 4 to 6 minutes, or until the mushrooms are golden brown and crispy.
  10. Remove the mushrooms from the air fryer, toss with the remaining Parmesan cheese, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving immediately.

Notes

  • For the crispiest results, ensure the mushrooms are dry before coating them.
  • Do not skip the single-layer arrangement in the air fryer basket; overcrowding causes steaming instead of crisping.
  • If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, use 1 teaspoon of garlic powder plus 1/2 teaspoon of fresh minced garlic mixed with the oil before tossing.
