Healthy Balsamic Roasted Mushrooms Recipe
These healthy balsamic roasted mushrooms feature a delightful combination of garlic, fresh herbs, and a hint of maple sweetness. They’re a perfect side dish or a savory addition to soups, casseroles, or breakfast recipes, bringing a balanced, flavorful touch to any meal.
Ingredients
- 1 pound cremini or baby bell mushrooms stems trimmed
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley chopped (plus more for garnish)
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F.
- Combine Ingredients: Place the mushrooms in a large mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, minced garlic, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to ensure the mushrooms are evenly coated.
- Arrange for Roasting: Transfer the coated mushrooms to a rimmed baking sheet or a shallow casserole dish, spreading them out in a single layer. Pour any remaining marinade over the mushrooms.
- Roast to Perfection: Place the mushrooms in the oven and roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring a few times during cooking to ensure even roasting. Once tender, remove them from the oven and garnish with additional parsley before serving.
Notes
Storage: Keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 4–5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Reheating: For frozen mushrooms, thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave for 1–2 minutes or warm them on the stovetop in a skillet.
Helpful Tip: These mushrooms make a fantastic addition to casseroles, soups, or egg dishes. Chop them up for an extra layer of savory flavor in any meal.
