Ingredients
UnitsScale
2 tbsp olive oil or butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
2cups mushrooms (such as cremini, button, or mixed), sliced
1/2cup heavy cream or plant-based cream
1/4cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
4 slices crusty bread
Instructions
Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5–7 minutes until softened and lightly browned.
Reduce heat to low, then pour in heavy cream and stir to coat mushrooms.
Add Parmesan cheese if using, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Simmer for 2–3 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
Meanwhile, toast bread slices until golden and crisp.
Spoon the creamy garlic mushrooms over the toasted bread, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
Notes
Use mixed wild mushrooms for deeper flavor.
For a dairy-free version, use coconut cream or oat cream and skip the Parmesan.
Add a splash of white wine before the cream for extra richness.
