Air Fryer Fried Mushrooms
My breaded air fryer mushrooms are much lighter than deep fried, but are just as irresistibly crunchy and delicious. I make this crispy breaded mushroom recipe in only 20 minutes, and serve them warm with creamy dipping sauces as a snack, appetizer or side dish.
Ingredients
- 16 ounces button mushrooms
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the air fryer to 380°F. Set out two mixing bowls. In one bowl combine the egg and olive oil. Whisk well. Then add in the mushrooms and toss to coat.

In the second bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of cracked black pepper. Mix well.

Once the air fryer is hot, scoop half of the mushrooms into the breadcrumbs. Toss to coat. Then lay the mushrooms in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Air fry for 8 to 12 minutes, gently shaking once after 5 minutes.

Meanwhile coat the remaining mushrooms and breadcrumbs. Once the first batch is out of the air fryer, repeat with the second batch. Serve warm.
