Notes / Tips

  • Dry the mushrooms very well before coating. Extra moisture makes them steam instead of crisp.

  • Use finely grated parmesan so it sticks better to the mushrooms.

  • Cook in one layer for the best crispy edges. If needed, air fry in two batches.

  • Serve right away. These mushrooms taste best hot and crisp from the air fryer.

Variations

  • Spicy Ranch Mushrooms: Add 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.

  • Garlic Parmesan Ranch Mushrooms: Add an extra 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and more parmesan after cooking.

  • Extra Crispy Mushrooms: Add 1 tablespoon extra panko breadcrumbs and press the coating gently onto the mushrooms before air frying.
