    roasted mushrooms in a serving dish with fresh parsley on top

    Garlic and Balsamic Roasted Mushrooms: Fresh mushrooms coated in a tangy garlic marinade and baked in the oven to savoury juicy perfection! Easy 30 minute recipe! Vegan!

    roasted mushrooms on a plate with a serving spoon

    I love me some roasted mushrooms!!… and these are the best!

    I could eat mushrooms everyday- well I almost do I guess haha they’re a great meat replacer in my opinion, and so satisfying,

    Cremini, brown or white button or portabella mushrooms are the types I most often use. They are chewy, juicy and full of flavour whether they’re baked, stuffed or crisped up in a sauté pan.

    It's really easy to get flavour into mushrooms. They soak it up! My oven roasted mushrooms are absolutely delicious with my flavourful 7 ingredient vinaigrette (marinade). The recipe is a no brainer really! And super easy.

    The garlic balsamic marinade takes minutes to put together, the ingredients are: melted vegan butter, tamari, balsamic vinegar, nutritional yeast ( oh it’s so good in this!), lots of garlic- uh yah!!, maple syrup and Italian seasonings, boom! that’s all she wrote folks!

    I like to reserve the excess marinade for a fresh hit of garlic drizzled on when they mushrooms come out of the oven. This step totally makes this dish if you ask me!!

    Ok it’s mushroom time!

    How to make Garlic and Balsamic Roasted Mushrooms?

    Preheat the oven to 400° Line a large baking sheet with parchment and set aside

    Melt the vegan butter in a small bowl and whisk in the rest of the marinade ingredients. Set aside.

    Add the raw mushrooms to a large bowl. Pour over the marinade and mix well but gently.

    Using a large slotted spoon remove the mushrooms and spread evenly on the baking sheet. Reserve the excess marinade at the bottom of the bowl and return it to the small bowl to reheat later.

    Bake the mushrooms for 20 minutes.

    Remove from the oven and to a serving dish. Heat the reserved marinade slightly in the microwave, 30 seconds or so. (You want the garlic to still be fresh tasting 👍) Drizzle evenly on the top of roasted mushrooms. Garnish with chopped parsley or any fresh herbs if you like and a tiny pinch of course salt and black pepper.

      I was a little overzealous with my new Costco card and bought 2lbs of mushrooms, with no recipe in mind. Iโ€™m so happy I stumbled across this recipe because the mushrooms turned out INCREDIBLE! I will definitely be making this recipe again! And the extra marinade poured on top at the end is dynamite!

      These are delicious! I had a large Costco package of mushrooms and wanted to make a plant-based side dish for Christmas dinner. Your recipe was so easy, and I already had all the ingredients.

      I made these today and they were mush in the middle. Are they supposed to be? The flavor was great - but the consistency was not. Ideas?

      This sounds delicious! We sometimes have chanterelles we pick wild in our yard. Do you think they would be too delicate of a flavor to hold up to this marinade?

        I think they'd be fine! might not need to cook quite as long. start checking after 15 minutes. Enjoy!

      This is my first ever comment on any food recipe but these mushrooms deserve nothing less. They are so good that even my boyfriend, who had really despised any kind of mushrooms, fell for them. We are definitely making them again.

      Hi Verna, would this recipe still work if I used Olive Oil instead of Vegan butter?

      I don't have any balsamic vinegar. Have you tried this with any other vinegars? I do have some red wine vinegar. Thank you for this recipe, Verna. I really love mushrooms, too.

      Take care.

        Hi Sunny, I always use balsamic vinegar it's the best for roasted mushrooms. it is sweeter, Red wine vinegar is tart. So the flavour would be quite different. Start with 2 tablespoons of the vinegar and taste. Maybe you might want to add a wee bit more maple syrup๐Ÿ˜Š Hope that helps.
