Confession: I never thought I liked mushrooms… until I made these air fryer mushrooms. With garlic parmesan, they’re juicy, tender, and downright addictive. Even the mushroom skeptics at your table will be fighting over the last bite!
A Reader’s Review
Was Very Good! Will definitely be making again. Seemed like a lot of mushrooms at first but after cooking down just right for 2 to 4 people as a side.

How to Make Air Fryer Mushrooms
Nothing complements a hearty dinner quite like mushrooms[2]. They are so tender, meaty, and flavorful! That’s why they’re so popular served with steak[3]! It’s the perfect combination. Here’s how to make them.
- Combine: Add the mushrooms, olive oil, soy sauce, parmesan, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper to a medium bowl. Toss to coat the mushrooms evenly.
- Cook in Air Fryer: Add the mushrooms to the air fryer basket[4] in an even layer without crowding them. *Air fryers need air flow, and mushrooms need a little room around them to cook evenly. Air fry at 380°F for 5 minutes. Shake the basket and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until tender.
Alyssa’s Pro Tip
Avoid Soggy Mushrooms: Keep your mushrooms from turning soggy by wiping them clean with a damp paper towel instead of rinsing. If they do get wet, just dry them thoroughly so they don’t soak up extra moisture.
