Cheesy Buffalo Mushroom Poppers

Crispy fried mushrooms stuffed with cheese and jalapenos served smothered in buffalo hot sauce!

ingredients

• 1 pound button or cremini mushrooms, stems removed and reserved
• 3 tablespoons cream cheese, room temperature
• 2 tablespoons cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 tablespoon jalapeno, finely diced
• 2 cups panko breadcrumbs or breadcrumbs (gluten-free for gluten-free)
• 1/2 cup flour (rice flour for gluten-free)
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• buffalo hot sauce to taste
• ranch or blue cheese dressing to taste

directions

1. Chop the mushroom stems, mix with the cheeses and jalapeno and stuff the mixture into the mushroom caps rounding the filling off so that it and the mushroom form a complete and smooth ball (about 1 teaspoon per mushroom).
2. Dredge the mushrooms in flour, coat in egg followed by the breadcrumbs.
3. Heat enough oil to cover the mushrooms in a large pan over medium-high heat and cook the them until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side, before setting aside on paper towels to drain.
4. Enjoy with buffalo hot sauce and ranch dressing!
