These crispy air fryer mushrooms with garlic and herbs are a quick, easy, and flavorful snack that delivers a satisfying crunch and savory aroma. Perfect for any occasion, they are simple to prepare and loved by all.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450 grams) white button mushrooms, cleaned and stems trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, or rosemary), chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika or chili flakes

Instructions

  1. Gently wipe mushrooms clean with a damp cloth and trim stems if needed.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped fresh herbs, salt, black pepper, and optional smoked paprika or chili flakes.
  3. Add mushrooms to the bowl and toss gently but thoroughly to coat evenly with the garlic-herb oil.
  4. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3 minutes.
  5. Arrange mushrooms in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each mushroom.
  6. Air fry for 10 minutes at 375°F (190°C), shaking or flipping mushrooms halfway through cooking.
  7. Check for doneness; mushrooms should be golden brown and crispy outside but juicy inside. Cook 2-3 minutes longer if extra crispiness is desired.
  8. Serve immediately, optionally garnished with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon.

Notes

Wipe mushrooms clean instead of rinsing to avoid sogginess. Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary. Shake or flip mushrooms halfway through cooking for even crisping. Use fresh garlic and herbs for best flavor. Optional: sprinkle grated Parmesan in last 2 minutes for a cheesy twist. Reheat leftovers in air fryer at 350°F for 3-5 minutes to restore crispiness.
