Introduction

These vegan stuffed mushrooms are a delicious and satisfying appetizer or snack, packed with savory flavors and a creamy filling. They are easy to prepare and perfect for parties or a cozy night in.

A white scalloped edged plate holds eleven stuffed mushrooms arranged in a loose circle around a small bowl of creamy white dipping sauce with green and pink bits inside. Each mushroom cap is dark brown and textured, topped with a golden brown, crumbled stuffing mixed with green herbs, creamy white cheese, and small mushroom pieces. The plate sits on a white marbled surface with sprigs of green herbs scattered around. In the background, there are whole brown mushrooms in a clear glass container and two light wooden pepper grinders. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

12 large button mushrooms
1 tablespoon olive oil

¼ cup finely chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced

½ cup vegan breadcrumbs (gluten-free, if desired)
¼ cup vegan cream cheese

1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
½ teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Carefully remove the stems, trim off any damaged parts, and finely chop the stems. Set the mushroom caps aside.
Step 2: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and mushroom stems, sautéing until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, then remove from heat.

Step 3: In a medium bowl, combine the sautéed mushroom stem mixture with vegan breadcrumbs, vegan cream cheese, nutritional yeast, chopped parsley, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to create the stuffing.
Step 4: Fill each mushroom cap generously with the stuffing mixture. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on a lightly greased baking sheet.
Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the mushrooms are tender.

Tips & Variations

For extra flavor, add a splash of soy sauce or tamari to the filling mixture before stuffing.
Try using cremini or portobello mushrooms for a meatier texture.
Top with vegan parmesan or chopped nuts for a crunchy finish.

Storage

Store any leftover stuffed mushrooms in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes to maintain their texture and flavor.
