    These Roasted Mushrooms are such a deliciously easy side dish, perfect for serving for dinner with a steak or roast chicken. Or use them to make a delicious mushroom sauce for stirring through pasta.

    The mushrooms are dotted with butter and then baked in the oven with garlic and thyme. This creates a wonderful garlic butter that slowly soaks into the mushrooms, giving them so my flavor and keeping them tender and juicy.

    This simple side is naturally gluten-free, low carb and so easy that you'll wonder why you haven't cooked mushrooms in the oven before!

    How to Roast Mushrooms in the Oven

    Roasted or Baked Mushrooms benefit from some form of fat, this stops them drying out in the oven.
    Here we are using butter. Once the mushrooms are in a baking dish the butter is dotted over the top ready to melt over the mushrooms.
    In addition to the butter, we are going to add two of mushrooms best friends! Garlic and Thyme.
    Mushrooms and Garlic is a match made in heaven, especially when paired with butter and some floral herby thyme.

    When the mushrooms are placed in the oven, the butter melts and slowly as the mushrooms release some of their wonderful juice, you get a rich garlic butter at the bottom of your roasting dish.

    How long to roast mushrooms for?

    Mushrooms need to be baked at 400ยบF/200ยบC for 30 minutes.
    You can also increase the temperature to 450ยบF/230ยบC and roast for 20 minutes.

    I prefer the longer cook at a lower temperature as this gives the mushrooms time to fully soften and release some wonderful mushroomy juices into the melted butter. And it is that mushroom infused butter that makes this side so delicious and packed with flavor! Perfect for spooning over a chicken breast - which can be roasted at the same temperature for 20 minutes!!!

    What to serve with roasted garlic mushrooms

    These roasted garlic mushrooms are wonderful as a side dish. Try serving them with:

    • Seared Steak with Blue Cheese Butter
    • Crispy Oven Baked Chicken Schnitzel
    • Pork Tenderloin with Beans and Bacon
    Table view, showing the wooden table, grey plate and the roasted mushrooms.

    This dish is beautiful before it is cooked. Just look at the roasting dish of mushrooms. It is so pretty. But the finished product is all about the taste. And let me tell you that taste is AMAZING! These roasted mushrooms aren't the prettiest, but I don't care because prettiness fades. What matters is what is inside. And when it comes to food that means how it tastes. And these taste good!!!!! Real Good!!!!!

    Get some garlic mushrooms in the oven, pour a glass of wine and raise a toast to food that tastes amazing, takes very little effort and is gloriously and deliciously brown ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Enjoy x

    • 5 cups mushrooms - any mushrooms work. I use the standard white mushrooms you can buy at the supermarket

    • Preheat oven to 400ยบF/200ยบC.
    • Cut the mushrooms into quarters (or smaller if you are using the large field mushrooms) and place them into a baking dish. (you want them to be fairly tightly packed)
    • Finely chop the garlic and scatter it over the mushrooms.
    • Pull the leaves from the thyme, add them to the mushrooms.
    • Cut the butter into small cubes and add it to the mushrooms along with plenty of salt and black pepper.
    • Roast for 15 minutes, then carefully stir and roast for a further 10-15 minutes until the mushrooms are golden browned.
    • Scatter with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

    These smell AMAZING when they are roasting!!!! Seriously, the day they invent a way for me to send food aromas through my blog, well that is the day you all need to buy bigger pants! #notevensorry

    There are very few things better in this world than the smell of garlic, thyme and butter. It is up there with my favourite smells ever.

    Come on, tell me you have favourite smells too!!!!!

    Yes? No? Come on share!!! I'll tell you mine. (in no particular order)

    • Freshly washed babies (oh that just pulls on my heart strings)
    • The smell of the garden after the rain. (Fresh, delicious and clean)
    • L'Air du Temps perfume (Because it reminds me of my Mummy)
    • The smell of fresh cut grass. (memories of being 10 and having the whole summer holidays ahead of you)
    • The smell of the ocean on a winters day. (The most perfect place to be. Wrapped in a scarf and warm socks)
    • Old Spice after shave (It smells like Stew and always makes me happy)
    • Fried onions. (They just make you hungry!!!)
    • Coffee at 4am. (Wake up juice!)
    • Warm bread fresh from the oven (Hello fresh bread!!!!!)

    I am surprised there isn't more food in there! ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Turns out I am a perfume/aftershave loving, horticulture/nature appreciating, sleep deprived, baby loving foodie.

    Tell me what do you love the smell of????

      Can I make these ahead of time to take to a "bare bones" cabin for dinner - would like to make at home and take for dinner there. They look wonderful

        Hi Elaine,
        I often make this in advance and then store in containers, you find the mushrooms all stick together where the butter solidifies, but the flavor is still great for 2-3 days.
        I have had some luck microwaving it, but you do have to heat it on low and watch it closely so the butter doesn't start to taste gross.

        For me the easiest and tastiest way to reheat in is a skillet or saucepan, just stirring over a medium heat until warmed through.
        Hope that helps ๐Ÿ˜€

        Enjoy your time in the cabin Cx

      Oh man, if smells could be transmitted through the internet....we would be in trouble. And you totally nailed all the best smells (well I've never smelled a freshly bathed baby)! I feel you on those dishes that are just impossible to make look good. Meatloaf comes to mind. Mine is ugly. period. You did a great job making these look good! And they sound delicious (that's really why we're here right?).

      Hi Claire! I don't care what anyone says, this dish looks great to me! I love mushrooms especially when paired with a perfectly grilled steak and a nice chunk of bread! Your list of favorite smells is very, very similar to mine right down to the Old Spice because Gary uses it! Another smell that makes me happy is pot roast slow cooking on a cold day! Oh and buttered popcorn! This one may sound weird to you, but the smell of cows and hay in a barn (I spent summers on my Aunt's farm as a child). ๐Ÿ™‚

        I love that Gary uses Old Spice, yet another wonderful thing we have in common.
        Ooooh buttered popcorn! Yes!!! Or a good cinnamon bun!
        Hehe I can understand the smell of hay...not so sure about the cow smell ๐Ÿ˜‰ But I love how the smell evokes memories for you x
