What Type of Mushrooms Should I Use?
You can prepare this Air Fryer Mushrooms recipe with a variety of different mushroom including, white button mushrooms, small brown mushrooms, portobello mushrooms (cut to smaller size), oyster mushrooms or shiitake mushrooms.
How To Clean Mushrooms
Do not soak or rinse your mushrooms to clean! Use a damp paper towel to clean and remove dirt from the mushrooms. Mushrooms act like a sponge and will become water logged – this water will release when cooked watering down the sauce.
Air Fryer Recipe Tips
Can I use Canned Mushrooms? Nope. Those little guys are filled with a ton of liquid. The air fryer will never be able to “fry” them. You’ll be left with bland mush.
Air Fryer Mushrooms and Onions – Slice up some onions and add to the mixture before cooking.
For my Air Fryer Recipes, I use the June Oven. In the market for a new Air Fryer? Amazon has a ton on sale, including the popular Ninja Foodie Digital Fry.
Serve these mushrooms up with a Ribeye in Air Fryer and garlic mashed potatoes for a killer meal!
