Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh button or cremini mushrooms, cleaned and dried
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup crushed flaxseed, low-carb panko, or ground almonds
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil spray
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, unsweetened and low-fat
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat air fryer to 390°F (200°C) or oven to 400°F (205°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In one bowl, mix almond flour, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Place beaten eggs in a second bowl. Add flaxseed, panko, or ground almonds to a third bowl.
  3. Dip each mushroom in egg, then coat with flour mix, and finally with the flaxseed mixture, pressing to adhere.
  4. Arrange mushrooms in a single layer in air fryer basket or on baking sheet. Spray with olive oil.
  5. Air fry for 10–12 minutes or bake for 15–18 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crisp.
  6. Meanwhile, prepare the dip by mixing Greek yogurt, chives, and lemon juice until smooth.
  7. Garnish mushrooms with parsley and serve warm with dip.

Notes

  • Ensure mushrooms are completely dry for best coating adhesion.
  • Add chili powder or cayenne for a spicier kick.
  • Use dairy-free yogurt for a vegan dip alternative.
  • Work in batches if doubling to avoid overcrowding.
  • Avoid microwaving to retain crisp texture when reheating.
