Ingredients

1 lb mushrooms (white button or baby bella), cleaned and halved if large

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 tablespoon soy sauce

3 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, thyme, and black pepper.
  3. Place mushrooms in a ceramic or glass baking dish and pour marinade over them. Stir to coat evenly.
  4. Roast for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. If liquid evaporates too early, cover with foil for the final 15 minutes.
  5. Stir once more before serving to coat mushrooms in the reduced glaze.

Notes

  • Use baby bella mushrooms for a richer flavor.
  • Replace brown sugar with maple syrup or honey for a natural sweetness.
  • Add red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme before serving.
  • Serve over grains, mashed potatoes, or as a savory topping for toast.
