How to Make Keto Air Fryer Stuffed Mushrooms!

Step 1: Prep the Mushrooms

Start by cleaning the mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Gently remove the stems and scoop out the gills to create a nice little bowl for the stuffing.

Step 2: Make the Filling

Combine the cream cheese, shredded cheese, cooked sausage or ground beef, minced garlic, and your choice of herbs and spices in a bowl. Mix everything until well combined. You want a thick, creamy mixture that's easy to scoop into the mushrooms.

Step 3: Stuff the Mushrooms

Generously fill each mushroom cap with the cheese mixture. Don't be afraid to pile it on—more filling equals more flavor!

Step 4: Cook in the Air Fryer

Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Lightly brush the mushrooms with olive oil, then place them in the air fryer basket. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is bubbly and golden.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Once they're done, let them cool for a minute before digging in. They can be served hot or at room temperature, making them perfect for any occasion.

Tips for The Keto Air Fryer Stuffed Mushrooms!

Don't Overcrowd:

Give the mushrooms some space in the air fryer so they cook evenly.

Adjust Cooking Time:

Depending on the size of your mushrooms, you may need to adjust the cooking time. Keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.

Experiment with Fillings:

Feel free to mix and match fillings. Try adding some crushed pork rinds for extra crunch or a little hot sauce for a spicy kick.

Don’t Skip the Preheat:

Make sure your air fryer is fully preheated before you start cooking. This helps the mushrooms cook evenly.

Use Room Temperature Cream Cheese:

This makes it much easier to mix and ensures a smooth filling.

Adjust Seasonings to Taste:

Everyone’s palate is different. Feel free to adjust the garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper to your liking.

Variations to Try

Italian Style:

Add some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and basil to the filling. Maybe even a pinch of Italian seasoning.

Spicy Kick:

Mix in some finely chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.

Bacon and Cheddar:

Swap out the sausage for crispy bacon bits and use cheddar cheese.

Spinach and Feta:

A great vegetarian option with a Mediterranean twist.

Buffalo Chicken:

Mix in some shredded chicken and buffalo sauce for a spicy, tangy flavor.

Pesto and Mozzarella:

Add a dollop of pesto to the filling for a burst of fresh, herby goodness.

FAQs

Can I make these in the oven if I don't have an air fryer?

Absolutely! Just preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden.

Can I Freeze Stuffed Mushrooms?

Yes, you can! Freeze them after stuffing but before cooking. When you're ready to eat, cook them straight from frozen in the air fryer, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

What Other Cheeses Can I Use?

Feel free to get creative with the cheese. Cheddar, mozzarella, or even goat cheese would work well in the filling.
