Oven Baked Bacon Wrapped Mushrooms are super simple and oh-so-good! I can’t wait for you to try the three different toppings to see which one you like the most!
When it’s time to go to a potluck or party, I always like to bring a unique recipe. I don’t have a competitive streak, but I do challenge myself to make something a bit different and something my friends will enjoy! And as always, it needs to be quick, easy and delicious.
🍄 Why This Recipe Works
Slightly Sweet | With a little bit of brown sugar on them, they have just a bit sweetness. It’s incredible!
Ideal Appetizer | If you are hosting a party, watching football, or are just in the mood for something awesome, these are what you need!
Less than 30 Minutes | You don’t need a bunch of time! When you take that first succulent bite, you will see it was worth every second of waiting.
🥓 Instructions
Step One: Use the smaller portobello or baby Bella mushrooms. The larger portobellos are too big for a one-bite appetizer. Spend a few minutes cleaning the mushrooms.
Step Two: Wrap a ½ slice of thin bacon around each mushroom and pin it in place on a skewer. Place it on a sheet pan that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. In the photos, I use a sheet pan with a foil packet to show you how to make them with three different toppings. The foil packet is excellent for clean up as well!
Step Three: In one foil pack I sprinkled brown sugar on top of the mushrooms. This created a sweet glaze after baking that was incredible!
Step Four: In the second foil pack, I drizzled a bottled Asian Sauce on top. I loved the tangy sauce mixed with the earthy mushroom. So good.
Step Five: For the third foil pack, I decided to try a traditional Barbecue sauce! BBQ sauce and bacon are always a winner together!
Your guests will need a fork for these appetizers as the sugars will create a sticky coating. If your skewers are long enough, it will be a good finger food, but make sure to have some napkins available.
Step Six: Bake them for 25-27 minutes at 400 degrees. You are looking for the bacon to be fully cooked so in my oven, it took 26 minutes.
🍽️ Recipe FAQs
Sure! Here’s how to meal prep it:
Select your toppings and get them ready.
Cut up the bacon into ½ slices.
Clean and wrap your mushrooms and place in a pan so they are ready to pop in the oven.
Prep the foil and sheet pan to just pop in the oven .
If you do these couple of things, you can preheat your oven, drizzle on sauce or sugar, place the mushrooms in the oven and walk away!
I find that the easiest way to heat them up is by placing them in the microwave. They heat super fast and only need 45 seconds – 1 minute. You can also put them in your air fryer at 375 for five minutes or so.

Air Fryer Or Ninja Foodi Directions
Make these mushrooms in the air fryer or Ninja Foodi. Use parchment paper to help prevent drips. You can also place a slice or two of bread on the bottom to soak up the bacon grease. Assemble mushrooms as directed, then place on a rack and cook at 350 degrees for 5 minutes then flip. Repeat until the bacon is fully cooked. Make sure to leave space between each mushroom, so it gets an even cook. Use the crisping lid on your Ninja Foodi.Nutrition
