Easy garlic roasted mushrooms in air fryer cook in less than 15 mins and will become your new favorite way to make "fried" mushrooms. Perfect with a steak, pork chops, or more veggies.
Leave small mushrooms whole, cut medium ones in half, and cut large ones into quarters.
Add the mushrooms to a medium-size bowl along with the oil, Italian seasoning, garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
Preheat the air fryer for 3-5 minutes.
Spread the mushrooms out in a single layer on the air fryer rack or in a basket, depending on your model.
Cook the roasted mushrooms in the air fryer for 6 minutes and then flip them or shake your air fryer basket.
Continue cooking them for 5-6+ additional minutes until cooked through.
Serve hot alongside a juicy steak, pork chops, with eggs or other vegetables. Enjoy!
Notes
To cut back on fat you can skip the oil, but they really do add a lot of flavor. Try spritzing the air fried mushrooms with a little oil from a spray bottle instead of an entire tablespoon.
Don't use non-stick cooking spray on a non-stick basket, it'll cover it in a film that'll cause sticking. If you have an aluminum air frying basket you can coat it with cooking spray.
Be sure to preheat the air fryer so that the air fried mushrooms will cook on time.
The mushrooms in air fryer recipe will work in both a basket style air fryer and a toaster oven style.
Because models can vary, keep a close eye on things after flipping and making the recipe for the first time to make sure they don't overcook.
