Ingredients

8-12 oz King Oyster Mushrooms Or Oyster mushrooms of choice
2 tbs Toasted Sesame Oil
1 tsp Nutritional Yeast Flakes
1 tsp Onion Powder
1 tsp Garlic Power
1/2 tsp Black Truffle Salt
1/2 tsp Smoked Black Pepper

Instructions

Shred the king oyster mushrooms vertically with a fork. Stab holes completely over the cap to keep it together instead of shredding the cap like the stem, this way it makes the same "shreds" without crumbling since the cap is a different density.
In large bowl mix your oil with all the spices
Add your shredded mushrooms in your seasoned oil, mix well so they are evenly coated
Put it in air fryer basket for 10-13 minutes at 450 F flipping halfway through. Cook them to desired crispness. 10 minutes will give you crispy edges with a soft meaty center, 13-14 minutes can make it crunchy all the way through.

Notes

While this recipe works the best with king oyster mushrooms it will still work with other varieties. The other varieties will be crumblier rather than shredded but will still have that great meaty flavor.
