These air fryer vegan egg stuffed portabello mushrooms make for the perfect high protein breakfast or snack – and they’re addictive & delicious!

Looking for an easy, delicious AND high protein breakfast idea? I gotchu. Make these healthy, balanced breakfast stuffed portabello mushrooms in an air fryer for the perfect juicy, satiating and addictive meal.
In this recipe, we used extra firm tofu to recreate ‘scrambled eggs’ with a similar texture by crumbling them. To recreate the flavours, the secret ingredients are black salt for that egg-y smell as well as nutritional yeast for the flavour.

You can also bake these but using an air fryer reduces cooking time and gives the mushrooms a perfect crisp while keeping the filling and mushrooms soft, flavourful and juicy.
