Baked cheese stuffed mushrooms are made by filling mushroom caps with a cheese mixture and baking them until tender. Remove the stems, chop them into the filling if you like, spoon the mixture into the caps, and bake until the cheese melts.
Large white button mushrooms or cremini mushrooms work well for baked cheese stuffed mushrooms because their caps hold filling. Choose mushrooms of similar size so they cook evenly, and avoid caps that are bruised or already releasing moisture.
No, you do not need to remove the gills from baked cheese stuffed mushrooms. They are edible and add flavor, though scraping them out creates a little more room for filling and can make the finished caps look neater.
To keep cheese on baked cheese stuffed mushrooms, fill each cap without piling the mixture too high and arrange the mushrooms level-side up. A little cream cheese or another soft cheese in the filling can help bind loose grated cheese.
Yes, cream cheese works in baked cheese stuffed mushrooms and gives the filling a creamy texture. Mix it with grated cheese, herbs, or chopped mushroom stems; avoid using only a very soft, wet filling, which can spill over as it heats.
Yes, baked cheese stuffed mushrooms can be cooked in an air fryer. Arrange them in a single layer so hot air can circulate, and check them as they cook; smaller caps may finish before larger ones and the cheese can brown quickly.
Yes, you can mix the filling for baked cheese stuffed mushrooms ahead and refrigerate it in a covered container. Keep it separate from the mushroom caps until you are ready to cook, since salted or chopped mushrooms can release moisture.
Baked cheese stuffed mushrooms are most often served as an appetizer or side, especially when the caps are small. Larger stuffed mushrooms can be part of a light meal with a salad or roasted vegetables.
Baked cheese stuffed mushrooms keep in the refrigerator for a few days when stored in a covered container. Refrigerate them after they cool rather than leaving them out, and reheat only the portion you plan to eat.
You can freeze baked cheese stuffed mushrooms, but their texture may become softer and wetter after thawing. For a better result, freeze them in a single layer before packing, then reheat from frozen or thaw them in the refrigerator and heat thoroughly.

Mushroom caps are filled with cheese and baked until tender, with the filling soft and lightly browned on top. Baked cheese stuffed mushroom is an easy home-cooked starter as well as a familiar restaurant appetizer; the cheese can vary, so the flavour may be mild or sharper.
Serve it warm as a starter, a small plate to share, or alongside a main meal. The mushrooms turn juicy and tender, balancing the rich, savoury cheese. It is relatively low in carbohydrates and provides some protein, with 8.1 g per 100 g. For a lighter plate, use a moderate amount of cheese and pair the mushrooms with a crisp salad.
