Ingredients (makes about 12 large stuffed mushrooms; 4 servings — 3 mushrooms per serving)
- 12 large white or cremini mushrooms (about 240 g total)
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil (14 g)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (about 6 g)
- 3 oz (85 g) fresh spinach, roughly chopped
- 4 oz (113 g) feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 oz (56 g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup (25 g) grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons (14 g) almond flour
- 1 large egg (50 g), beaten
- Zest of 1/2 lemon (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove stems. Finely chop the stems and set the caps aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and cook 2–3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 1–2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl combine the cooked spinach mixture, feta, cream cheese, Parmesan, almond flour, beaten egg, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Spoon the filling into mushroom caps, pressing gently to mound. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake 18–22 minutes, until filling is set and tops are golden. If you want more browning, finish under the broiler for 1–2 minutes while watching carefully.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
Tips for success
- Use dense, large mushroom caps (like large cremini or portobello button-style) so they hold plenty of filling.
- Squeeze excess liquid from cooked spinach to avoid a soggy filling.
- For more crunch and extra flavor, sprinkle an additional teaspoon of almond flour or crushed pork rinds over each stuffed mushroom before baking.
- To make dairy-free (not keto), swap feta and cream cheese for a flavorful plant-based alternative; nutrition will change.
Storage and make-ahead
- Refrigerate cooled leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for about 8–10 minutes.
- To freeze: arrange stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet and freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 2 months. Bake from frozen at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes.

- If you need to lower carbs further, reduce the amount of feta or cream cheese slightly or make smaller portions (2 mushrooms per serving).
Variations and flavor ideas
- Sun-dried tomatoes and basil for a Mediterranean twist (adds a little more carbs).
- Swap almond flour for 2 tablespoons crushed pork rinds for a zero-carb topping (not vegetarian).
- Add chopped kalamata olives or a pinch of dill to the filling.
- Make them spicier with chopped jalapeño or smoked paprika.
