Instructions
Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Prepare the Mushrooms
Gently clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems carefully and set them aside. Place the mushroom caps on the prepared baking sheet, hollow side up.
Make the Filling
Finely chop the mushroom stems.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a small frying pan over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant and softened, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the chopped mushroom stems and cook for another 3 minutes until they release their moisture.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the breadcrumbs, nutritional yeast, parsley, walnuts (if using), dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Stuff the Mushrooms
Use a spoon to carefully fill each mushroom cap with the prepared stuffing. Press gently to pack the filling.
Bake the Mushrooms
Brush the mushroom caps lightly with melted plant-based butter or olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden.
Serve
Remove the mushrooms from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with additional parsley if desired. Serve warm.
