Boursin stuffed mushrooms are one of the easiest hors d’oeuvres. They taste so amazing guests would never guess that they only take minutes to make!

They’re a delicious alternative to Roasted Mushrooms and Stuffed Mushrooms.
Boursin Mushrooms
Boursin is a whipped cheese blended with herbs for irresistible flavor, and it pairs incredibly well with mushrooms. The mushrooms are baked just until they release water so they’re not soggy or dry!

Ingredients and Substitutions
See printable recipe card for complete ingredients and instructions.

How to Make Boursin Stuffed Mushrooms
- Prep – Wash mushrooms and remove stems by gently twisting.
- Stuff – Use a spoon or small cookie scoop to stuff mushrooms. I like to overfill them for the best boursin to mushroom ratio.
- Bake – Bake on a jelly roll pan with an edge, baking dish or mini muffin tin (to prevent them from rolling around) and serve!
Tips
- To clean your mushrooms: No need to submerge! Mushrooms hold a lot of water, so it’s best to simply wipe them with a damp paper towel. You can also do a quick rinse with a colander, but make sure to dry thoroughly.
- Use a mini muffin tin to prevent mushrooms from tipping over. If you use this method and they don’t fit all the way in the cup, brush with their juice after baking. This also keeps them from sitting in their own moisture and becoming soggy.
- Double or triple the recipe for a crowd – simply use the yield tab on the printable recipe card to multiply the ingredients! No math required!

how do you suggest using prosciutto with these?
I have the ingredients and am ready to make them!
Just tear into pieces and add into the mixture before you bake. You can also fry the prosciutto ahead if you’d like – your preference.
Man, I wish I liked mushrooms, but I just can’t stand them! This might work great, though, for Thanksgiving for my mushroom loving husband and his family (particularly his sister who is pescatarian). I love that it wouldn’t take me much extra work at all, too; this would be super easy to keep in the fridge and pop into the oven once I pull the turkey out.
Hi Makenna!
I totally understand on the mushrooms… but YES! So easy to make and sounds like your family will love you for it!
Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
