These tasty mushroom bites are the perfect party appetizer! We love serving them for football or basketball game days and holidays!
Are you a mushroom lover and in search of the perfect game day snack?
Today's post is just for you!!
Not only do I have these ah-mazing Beer Battered Mushroom Bites for you, but I also have over 20 game day snacks from my Sunday Supper blogging buddies!!
There's defintely something for everyone and it's so easy having access to all these recipes in one place!
My home team, the MN Vikings, didn't make it to the Super Bowl, but we will still be eating and celebrating because for me, that's what game day is all about!
I'm not much for frying foods at my house but I love pretty much everything mushrooms! This was my first time making a beer batter and I must say, I love how they turned out!
The batter ended up being light and airy after frying. It had just the right touch of seasoning.
Is spicy your thing? You can always increase the amount of cayenne to your preference. I did end up serving ketchup as a dipping sauce to keep it simple.
If you're like me and no one else in your house likes mushrooms, you can cut the recipe in half for a smaller serving!
This recipe is super simple and enjoyable for any mushroom fan!

Beer Battered Mushroom Bites
Ingredients

- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 8 ounces beer
- vegetable or canola oil
Instructions
- Wipe the mushrooms clean with a dry paper towel.
- Combine flour, spices and beer in a medium sized bowl and whisk until batter is smooth.
- Heat one inch of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Separate the mushrooms into two batches.

- Serve immediately with a dipping sauce. We used hot and spicy ketchup.

ReplyDeleteI absolutely love mushroom! What a perfect game day snack!
ReplyDeleteThat batter does look quite light and airy! Yum!
ReplyDeleteI love mushrooms- and these look delicious!
ReplyDeleteDoes it absolutely have to be beer? Club soda, or sparkling water?
ReplyDeleteYou can try club soda, seltzer water or even non alcoholic beer. I haven't tried any of those with this recipe, so I can't say for sure what the end result would be, but after doing some research, those are all recommended substitutions. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI recently used non alcoholic beer for a batter and it was just as good as using regular beer!
DeleteGreat to know! Thanks for commenting!
