STUFFED MUSHROOMS
INGREDIENTS IN STUFFED MUSHROOMS
- WHITE MUSHROOMS – I like to use regular white button mushrooms. You could also use cremini mushrooms, portobello, or baby bella mushrooms. Larger mushrooms aren’t necessarily better than smaller mushrooms. You want a mushroom that’s the perfect bite size.
- SAUSAGE
- ONION
- GARLIC
- CREAM CHEESE – you could use fat free cream cheese
- EGG YOLK
- PARMESAN CHEESE
- CHICKEN BROTH
HOW TO MAKE STUFFED MUSHROOMS
- Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Clean mushrooms. Wipe off whole mushrooms with a damp paper towel or rag. Pop out mushrooms stems, reserving both parts including the mushroom stalks and mushroom cap.
- Chop stems finely and set aside.
- In a medium skillet, brown and crumble the Italian sausage. Set aside on a plate to cool.
- Add onions and garlic to the same skillet; cook for 2 minutes over medium heat. Pour in wine or broth to deglaze pan, allow liquid to evaporate. Add in chopped mushroom stems, stir to cook for 2 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set mixture aside on a plate to cool.
- In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and egg yolk. Stir together with Parmesan cheese. Add cooled sausage and cooled mushroom stems. Stir mixture together and refrigerate for a short time to firm up.
- Smear mushroom filling into the cavity of each mushroom, creating a sizable mound over the top. Place mushrooms on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool at least ten minutes before serving.

Best stuffed mushrooms ever. Simple to make, a little time consuming, but well worth it.
So good! Thank you!
What is the recommendation for air fryer?
I would bake at the same temp for the same amount of time.
Wow! I love stuffed mushrooms and this might be my favorite recipe yet! These have so much flavor and are delicious. Thank you for an amazing recipe!
Thanks! I love them!
These are amazing been making them for years!
Thank you!
Do I freeze these before or after I bake them?
You can do it either way. I personally would freeze before baking.
I’ve been making this recipe for the past two thanksgivings and now for nye and it’s such a hit every. single. time!!! And I don’t like mushrooms! But I love this recipe!
This looks delicious! I would like to make them for a baby shower I’m hosting soon because the couple loves stuffed mushrooms. Do you think I could make the mixture and prep the mushrooms the day before and then put them together and bake the day of ? Thanks for your help!
Emily,
Yes, these are perfect for making ahead of time. I always prep the day before.
If I were going to serve these buffet style, do you think a chafing dish would dry them out? Or would you just serve them cold?! Trying to figure out the best way to serve these for a large crowd!
Definitely better hot. I think a chafing dish would work and would not dry them out.
How many links is a third of a pound of sausage, recipie looks great
It’s actually bulk sausage like Jimmy Dean (in the tube).
Is it possible to make the filling ahead of time and keeping it for a day or two before stuffing the mushrooms
YES!! Absolutely okay. I do it all the time.
Hey! Everyone loved the mushrooms . They taste heavenly but apparently cheese was all over the palce when i pulled them out of the oven . i wonder why
You want to kind of stand them so they hold each other up. That helps.
