Instructions
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit). Next, take the 10 medium-sized mushrooms and carefully remove their stems. Make sure to do this gently to avoid damaging the caps. Chop the stems finely and set them aside for the filling.
In a mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped mushroom stems, minced garlic, mayonnaise, and the 100 grams of cheese. It is highly recommended to use a natural cheese for the best flavor.
Step 2
Once your filling is ready, begin stuffing the mushroom caps generously with the mixture. Make sure to pack it well to utilize every bit of flavor. Once all the caps are filled, place them onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Sprinkle 50 grams of cheese over the top of the stuffed mushrooms. This will create a deliciously cheesy crust as they bake.
Step 3
Place the tray in the preheated oven and let them bake for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese on top has melted and turned golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
As they bake, the aroma will fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist. Remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these cheesy baked mushrooms as a delightful appetizer, snack, or side dish!
Servings
Feeling a bit fancy? Pair them with some **fresh herbs** or a sprinkle of crushed red pepper for a bit of heat! 🌶️
**They also make a charming side dish** — imagine a plate of these cheesy mushrooms alongside your favorite protein at dinner. 🍽️ Don’t forget, they’re perfect for a cozy movie night snack – just grab a plate and enjoy while snuggling on the couch! 🎬
Equipment
Use a soft brush to gently clean your mushrooms without damaging them. Avoid washing them under water to keep them from getting soggy!
A sharp knife will make it easier to remove the stems from your mushrooms and chop them finely. Safety first!

Faq
- Can I use any type of mushroom for this recipe?
Absolutely! While button mushrooms are commonly used, you can experiment with portobello or cremini mushrooms for a twist!
- What can I do if I don’t have mayonnaise?
If you're out of mayo, try using cream cheese or Greek yogurt as a creamy binder — both work wonderfully!
- How can I ensure the cheese melts perfectly?
Using freshly grated cheese will help it melt faster and more evenly than pre-packaged cheese.
- Can I prepare the filling ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare the filling a few hours in advance and store it in the fridge, just fill the mushrooms right before baking!
- Is it possible to freeze these stuffed mushrooms?
You can freeze the assembled mushrooms before baking. Just thaw before cooking and enjoy! This is great for meal prep!
- What’s the best cheese to use for stuffing?
A blend of cheeses such as cream cheese with cheddar or mozzarella gives a creamy texture and rich flavor. Experiment with your favorites!
