Ingredients

for the mushrooms:

  • 1 pound (450g) cremini (baby bella) mushrooms preferably smaller/medium mushrooms, not large
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt and pepper

for the filling:

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 shallots
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 tablespoons Panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup (115g) cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup lightly packed grated Parmesan
  • zest grated from 1/2 lemon optional
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley

for the topping:

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup (30g) Panko breadcrumbs
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan

Instructions

  • Wash the mushrooms and pat them dry with paper towels. Separate the mushroom caps from the stems, finely chop the stems. Finely chop shallots, garlic, and parsley.
  • Heat butter in a pan over medium heat. Add chopped mushroom stems and shallots. Cook for a couple of minutes or until soft and all the excess water is evaporated. Add garlic and thyme and cook for 30 seconds.
  • In a large bowl, combine sauteed mushroom stems and onions, cream cheese, grated parmesan, breadcrumbs, parsley, lemon zest, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, and grated cheddar. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Make the breadcrumb topping: melt butter in a small pot. When melted add the breadcrumbs and stir until evenly coated. Take the pot off the heat and stir in parmesan cheese.
  • Place the mushroom caps on a baking sheet stem-side up. Drizzle the mushrooms with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Stuff the mushrooms with the filling and top with the breadcrumb topping.
  • Bake at 400°F/200°C for about 20 minutes or until the topping is nicely browned.
  • Enjoy!
