Ranch-Seasoned Crispy Mushrooms (Printable)

Savory mushrooms coated with zesty ranch spices, baked to a golden, crispy finish for a tasty snack.

# What You Need:

→ Mushrooms

01 - 1 lb button or cremini mushrooms, cleaned and quartered

→ Coating

02 - ½ cup all-purpose flour
03 - 2 large eggs, beaten
04 - 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
05 - ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

→ Ranch Seasoning

06 - 1 tsp dried dill
07 - 1 tsp dried parsley
08 - 1 tsp dried chives
09 - ½ tsp garlic powder
10 - ½ tsp onion powder
11 - ½ tsp salt
12 - ¼ tsp ground black pepper

→ Oil

13 - Cooking spray or 2 tbsp olive oil

# How-To:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
02 - In a small bowl, mix dried dill, parsley, chives, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
03 - Place flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in a second, and a mixture of panko, Parmesan, and half the ranch seasoning in a third.
04 - Toss mushrooms in flour, shaking off excess. Dip each piece into the egg, then coat thoroughly with the panko mixture.
05 - Place mushrooms in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Spray generously with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil.
06 - Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crisp.
07 - Sprinkle the remaining ranch seasoning over the hot mushrooms before serving.

# Insider Tips:

01 -
  • They're crispy on the outside and tender inside—no deep fryer required, just your oven.
  • Ranch seasoning does the heavy lifting, so you get that savory umami punch without fussy sauces.
  • Takes less time than ordering delivery and tastes infinitely better than store-bought frozen snacks.
02 -
  • Wet mushrooms won't crisp—pat them completely dry with paper towels before you even think about breading, or you'll end up with soggy disappointment.
  • Don't skip the flour step or the coating slides right off into the oven; the flour is the adhesive that holds everything together.
03 -
  • If you want deeper browning, brush the tops lightly with olive oil before baking instead of relying on spray alone.
  • Mixing a little extra Parmesan into just the panko coating (beyond what the recipe calls for) gives you a cheesier crunch that's dangerous in the best way.
