Apple and Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms

Ingredients

• 24 medium-sized mushrooms
• 1 Tbsp (15 mL) canola oil
• 1/2 cup (125 mL) finely chopped onion
• 7 pieces cooked and crumbled bacon
• 2 (peeled or not) coarsely grated apples
• 1/2 cup (125 mL) bread crumbs
• 1/2 cup (125 mL) freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

1. 1

   To give mushrooms a richer flavour while making them less watery, roast the mushrooms before stuffing. To do so, clean mushrooms, remove stems and place stem side down on a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350° F (180° C) for 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, place oil in saucepan over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

3. 3

   In large bowl, combine cooked onion with bacon, apple and breadcrumbs.

4. 4

   Spoon into mushrooms and sprinkle each with Parmesan cheese.

5. 5

   Bake at 350° F (180° C) for 15–20 minutes.
