Ingredients
- 12 large mushrooms (such as button, baby bella, or portobello)
- 1 cup fresh crab meat
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp green onions, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. First, clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp cloth and remove the stems to create space for the filling.
2. Then, mix crab meat, cream cheese, Parmesan, green onions, garlic, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until well combined.
3. Preheat your air fryer to 380°F. This ensures a crisp exterior while keeping the inside tender.
4. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Ensure they’re not touching to allow for even cooking.
5. Cook for 10 minutes. Halfway through, check on them to ensure they don’t overcook. Air fryer cooking times and temperatures can vary, so adjust as needed.
6. Once done, the mushrooms should be golden and the filling hot. Use a thermometer to check the internal temperature of the stuffing, aiming for 165°F for safety.
Notes
Whether using an air fryer or oven, ensure the mushrooms don’t become too wet or soggy. A little space between each mushroom helps them cook evenly and keeps the filling from becoming too moist. Trust me, following these steps will give you delicious results every time.
