💡 Pro Recipe Tips
✅ Chop mushrooms into evenly sized pieces. Pieces of different sizes will cook unevenly, leaving some undercooked and others burnt. ✅ Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket! If mushrooms are stacked tightly, cook them in separate batches for crispy results. ✅ Swap butter easily: coconut oil, lard, or bacon fat all work great. Each swap brings a fun new flavor twist.
🍳 Equipment I Use
I use a 8.5qt Air Fryer for all my air fryer recipes. If your air fryer has a smaller or larger capacity, you may need to adjust cooking times and batch sizes accordingly.
