Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound white button mushrooms, stems removed and finely chopped
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 small shallot, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. Wipe the mushroom caps clean with a damp cloth. Arrange them hollow-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and shallot. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, and parsley.
  6. Mix in the cooked stem and shallot mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until everything is well combined.
  7. Spoon the cheese mixture evenly into the mushroom caps, mounding it slightly on top.
  8. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
  9. Let cool for a few minutes before serving hot.

Notes

  • You can chop the mushroom stems ahead of time to save prep work.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of dried thyme to the filling mixture.
  • If you prefer a crispier topping, lightly toast the breadcrumbs before mixing them in.
