Stuffed Mushrooms Recipe

This Stuffed Mushrooms recipe is filled with a rich cream cheese filling and topped with bread crumbs. They’re baked until juicy and golden brown on top.

MUSHROOMS Use small brown, white, or cremini mushrooms, also known as baby bella mushrooms. If you’re looking for a one-bite snack, choose small white button mushrooms. If you want something a bit larger, choose larger mushrooms and serve on a plate.

FILLING Cream cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic, and spices make the filling both easy and flavorful. Simply mix the ingredients together in a bowl and then fill the mushrooms.

TOPPING Seasoned breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, and butter create a delicious topping. Use panko bread crumbs for extra crunch. You can add a sprinkle of parsley for a pop of color.

This stuffed mushroom recipe is delicious but simple. It is really versatile so you can add in your own favorites.

The mushrooms can be prepared up to 24 hours ahead of time and stored covered in the fridge. Remove them from the refrigerator while the oven preheats and bake as directed.

You can freeze stuffed mushrooms before baking them. They will release a little bit more water but will still be great. They should be baked from frozen (do not thaw), and you will need to add 5-8 minutes to the cooking time (depending on the size of the mushrooms).
