Looking for a quick appetiser or something healthy to snack on then why not try these delicious baked crispy garlic mushrooms. The mushrooms are crispy as they are covered in panko breadcrumbs and served with a sour cream and chive dip which really does bring out the flavours of the mushrooms.
Usually when it comes to crispy foods, I feel like baking is not an option but these crispy baked garlic mushrooms have definitely changed my mind. They are a heavier alternative to crispy mushrooms that are deep fried and I promise they taste just as good.
Ingredients for Baked Crispy Garlic Mushrooms
- Mushrooms – I use white closed cup mushrooms.
- Seasonings – salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder.
- Flour – I use plain flour.
- Eggs – use eggs to help the panko stick to the mushrooms.
- Breadcrumbs – I use panko breadcrumbs for a crispier breading.
- Oil – ideally use sunflower spray oil.
Sour Cream and Chives Dip
- Soured cream – use fresh soured cream.
- Mayonnaise – I use light or lower fat mayo.
- Chives – use dried or fresh chives.
How to Make Baked Crispy Garlic Mushrooms
1. Preheat the oven to gas mark 7/425oF/220oC then line a baking tray with foil. Wash the mushrooms, removing any dirt and then pat them dry. Place them on the baking tray lined with foil then season them with the salt, black pepper, paprika and garlic powder. Set the baking tray aside.
2. Gather 3 cereal bowls and to one bowl, add the plain flour. To the 2nd bowl, add and whisk together the eggs and to the 3rd bowl, add the panko breadcrumbs.
3. Take 1 mushroom and dip it in the flour ensuring it is fully coated then dip it in the egg. Drain off any excess egg then dip it into the panko breadcrumbs and place it back onto the baking tray. Repeat this with all the mushrooms. If the panko starts to clump together due to the eggs, use your fingers the break it apart.
4. Once all the mushrooms are coated, spray them all using spray oil or drizzle oil onto them. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until crispy and golden. Once removed from the oven you can serve immediately.
Recipe Tips
- As the mushrooms cool down, they will lose their crispiness but you can reheat them back in the oven to make them crispy again.
