Next, I tossed in panko crumbs and immediately spooned them out in the air fryer basket.
Thereafter, I attached the basket to the air fryer and turned it on at 350 degree for 15 minutes or until all the of them were crispy and well cooked.
Afterwards, I spooned them out in a serving plate and garnished with fresh cilantro.
Lastly, I served it immediately. I was totally surprised and they were gone within minutes. We totally loved these.
So, now, whenever I have mushrooms in my refrigerator, I quickly make this vegan air fryer mushrooms recipe.
Expert tips:

- After tossing in panko, it is important to immediately air fry so that panko does not become soggy.
