Air Fryer Stuffed Mushrooms with Spinach, Goat Cheese and Walnut

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the air fryer to 360 °F / 180 °C for 3 minutes.

2. 2

   Remove the stems from the mushrooms and clean the caps with a paper towel. Finely chop the stems to use in the filling.

3. 3

   In a bowl, toss the mushroom caps with 1 teaspoon olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a little black pepper. Set aside.

4. 4

   Heat a small skillet over medium heat and add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Sauté the shallot, garlic, and chopped mushroom stems for 3 to 4 minutes, until softened.

5. 5

   Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, just until wilted. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly for 2 minutes.

6. 6

   In a medium bowl, combine the spinach mixture, goat cheese, chopped walnuts, half of the breadcrumbs, lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley, the remaining salt, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.

7. 7

   Fill each mushroom with the mixture, pressing lightly so it stays in place. Sprinkle the remaining breadcrumbs over the top.

8. 8

   Arrange the stuffed mushrooms in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 360 °F / 180 °C for 10 to 12 minutes, until the filling is golden and the mushrooms are tender.

9. 9

   Let rest for 2 minutes before serving so the filling can set. Serve hot or warm.
