Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a quarter sheet pan with parchment paper. Remove stems and use a spoon to carefully scrape away ribs of mushroom caps.

Place mushrooms top side down on the baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove and use a paper towel to soak up excess water.

While mushrooms are in the oven, heat olive oil in a medium frying pan. Once heated, add in fresh baby spinach and saute until cooked, about 5 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes.

Create a wall of the cooked spinach in the inside edges of the mushroom caps, leaving an opening in the center. Crack an egg into the center of each mushroom, and return sheet pan to the oven. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until eggs are set.

Remove and serve with Dairy-Free Pesto, hot sauce or your favorite garnish.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Remove Mushroom Gills for Perfect Texture 🍄
Gently scrape out the dark gills with a spoon before stuffing to create a larger cavity and prevent excess moisture that can make the filling soggy.
Squeeze Spinach Dry for Better Filling 💧
After wilting the spinach, wrap it tightly in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible to ensure a firm, cohesive filling that won't leak during baking.
Prebake Mushrooms for Optimal Doneness ⏱️
Bake the mushroom caps at 400°F for 8-10 minutes before adding the filling to cook them partially and ensure they're tender while the eggs finish cooking through.
Don't Overfill the Caps 🎯
Fill mushrooms only three-quarters full to prevent the mixture from overflowing during baking; this keeps presentation clean and ensures even cooking of the filling.
Add Cheese or Herbs for Flavor Complexity 🧀
Incorporate grated Parmesan, feta, or fresh herbs like dill or thyme into the spinach-egg mixture before stuffing to elevate the dish with deeper, more complex flavors.
