Keto Air Fryer Stuffed Mushrooms
How to Make It
Step 1
Melt the butter in a skillet over a medium heat. Add the diced pancetta and cook through until golden. Set aside to cool.
Step 2
Whilst the pancetta is cooking, add the cream cheese, mozzarella, parmesan, ground almonds, salt and pepper to a mixing bowl. Finely chop the chives and add to the bowl. Beat together until well combined.
Step 3
Add the cooked pancetta to the mixing bowl. Stir well to combine, distributing the pancetta evenly throughout the cheese mixture. Set to one side whilst you prepare the mushrooms.
Step 4
Wipe the mushrooms clean. Remove and discard the stalks. Take a teaspoon and carefully run it around the inside of the mushroom to remove the gills.
Step 5
Divide the cream cheese and pancetta mixture evenly between the two prepared mushrooms. Lightly grease the air fryer basket base with a little olive oil to prevent sticking. Brush the mushrooms with the remaining oil. Arrange the mushrooms side by side in the prepared air fryer basket.
Step 6
Place the basket in the air fryer and set the temperature to 400 degrees. Set a timer for 12 minutes. After this time, check the mushrooms to see if they are tender and cooked through. Return them to the air fryer for a few minutes more if required. The mushrooms should be soft, piping hot through and the cheese should be golden. Serve hot.
