Base Ingredients
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon garlic and onion seasoning
- ½ cup ranch dressing
- ¾ cup panko bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons dry ranch dressing mix
- 8 ounces portobello mushroom caps, cleaned
- Nonstick cooking spray
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s ready for crisping the mushrooms evenly.
- Prepare Breading Station: Set up 4 shallow dishes: pour milk in the first dish; combine flour and garlic and onion seasoning in the second; place ranch dressing in the third; mix panko bread crumbs with dry ranch dressing mix in the fourth dish.
- Coat the Mushrooms: Dip each cleaned mushroom cap into the milk first, then coat with the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Next, dip into the ranch dressing, and finally coat thoroughly with the panko and ranch dry seasoning mixture to create a flavorful crust.
- Prepare for Air Frying: Arrange the coated mushrooms in a shallow air fryer pan or directly in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray the tops with nonstick cooking spray to enhance browning and crispiness.
- Air Fry Mushrooms: Cook in the preheated air fryer at 400°F for about 7 minutes or until the mushrooms turn golden brown and crisp, turning if necessary for even cooking.
