    Keto Stuffed Mushrooms

    Making Keto Stuffed Mushrooms

    These 'shrooms aren't the quickest dish to put together, but they're always a favorite at social gatherings and their rich flavor makes them well worth the effort. They're great as leftovers as well, and arguably taste even better the next day. Just refrigerate your Keto Stuffed Mushrooms in a sealed container, then pop one or two in the microwave (for 30 seconds) or toaster oven (for 5 minutes) to reheat and enjoy.

    Choosing a Mushroom

    I used medium-sized portabella mushrooms. Not the giant ones the size of a burger, the medium ones that are approximately 2 inches in diameter. You could also use baby bella or white mushrooms. Either way, try to find ones that are about 2-3 inches in diameter. Mushrooms that are one inch or smaller won't work... you won't have enough space to stuff them.

    Making them Keto

    Typically, stuffed mushrooms include bread crumbs, which are off limits on a low-carb diet. Instead, I replaced them with almond flour and you can't even tell the difference. I've also made these Keto Stuffed Mushrooms without any flour at all and they came out just fine. The cheese helps keep it together even if you omit the flour.

    Nutrition

    You can't really make any substitutions or alternations to reduce the carbs without also reducing the fat content. About half of the fat and half of the net carbs comes from the cream cheese; it's an important ingredient for this recipe.

    Dairy Free

    To make this recipe dairy-free, use a dairy-free cream cheese (typically made from almond milk or other nut milks), omit the parmesan, and substitute the butter for avocado oil.

    Prep Time: 10 minutes minutes
    Cook Time: 30 minutes minutes
    Servings: 3

    Ingredients
     

    • 6 medium portabella mushrooms (approx. 2 inch (10 cm) diameter, not the giant ones; large baby bella or white mushrooms also work)
    • 1 tablespoon butter
    • 2 slices bacon, crumbled
    • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
    • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
    • salt and pepper
    • 3 oz cream cheese
    • 3 tablespoon parmesan cheese
    • 2 tablespoon almond flour
    • sliced green onions, for garnish (optional)

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat the toaster oven (or regular oven) to 375°. For easy cleanup, line a small baking pan with foil or parchment paper.
    • Remove the stems from the mushrooms and chop them into small pieces. Then, take a spoon and carefully scoop out the gills so that the mushrooms have lots of space for the stuffing. Set the mushroom caps on the prepared baking pan (upside-down like little empty bowls).
    • In a small skillet, melt the butter on medium heat and then add the chopped mushroom stems, mushroom gills, bacon crumbles, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Saute for 5 minutes, stirring often, until the mushrooms are soft.
    • Add the cream cheese and stir until melted. Turn off the heat and add 2 tablespoon of parmesean and the almond flour. Stir until everything is mixed together well.
    • Using a small spoon, stuff the mushroom caps with the mixture. Bake in the toaster oven for 20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender. Garnish with the remaining 1 tablespoon of parmesan and sliced green onions.

      This is a very forgiving recipe. My mushrooms were all different sizes (most too small) but that didn't seem to matter. We ate the smaller ones in the kitchen while finishing cooking so... they make good bite-size appetizers! The larger ones were great as a side dish which is wonderful since most side dishes are not low-carb. Make this with creamed spinach as long as you have out the parmesan cheese, cream cheese, mushrooms, and bacon.
