Ingredients
  

1 lb large portobello or cremini mushrooms

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

1/2 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing)

Instructions
 

Start by preheating your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

    Carefully wipe the mushrooms with a damp paper towel to eliminate any dirt. Detach the stems and keep the caps aside.

      In a mixing bowl, blend the shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.

        Using a spoon, generously fill each mushroom cap with the cheese mixture. Make sure they are well-stuffed and have a slight mound on top for added cheesy flavor.

          Lightly brush the tops of the filled mushrooms with olive oil for a crispy texture.

            Arrange the stuffed mushrooms in the air fryer basket in a single layer to avoid overcrowding.

              Air fry the mushrooms for around 10-12 minutes, or until the tops become golden brown and bubbly.

                Carefully take the mushrooms out of the air fryer and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving. Savor these tasty cheesy bites as an ideal game day snack!
