And Air Fryer Quesadillas are the best easy dinner when I am running short on time.

They are juicy, with crispy edges, cook in just 15 minutes or less, and are not watery at all.

How to make air fryer mushrooms

Step 1: Start by washing and drying the baby bella mushrooms.

It’s important to dry them well to get as much moisture off as possible.

Step 2: cut each mushroom in half.

For larger mushrooms, you can cut them into fourths.

We just want them all to be around the same size.

Step 4: place the mushrooms in a single layer in the air fryer basket.

For this recipe, I used a 6 quart air fryer, so if you are using a smaller one you will need to work in batches.

How long to cook mushrooms in the air fryer

Step 5: Turn the air fryer to 400 degrees and cook the mushrooms for 10 minutes.

Give them a good shake and stir around the mushrooms so that all sides can get nice and done.

Cook up to another 5 minutes, until browned on all sides.

Be sure to note that every air fryer cooks differently, so keep an eye on these towards the end to avoid burning!

Serve with dinner as a side dish, or simply eat them right out of the air fryer.

My husband and I ate the entire batch ourselves and oh my goodness I have never tasted such delicious mushrooms.

Love it! Would just omit the salt as the Worcester sauce adds enough on its own
