Creamy Baked Mushroom Dip is a warm and savory appetizer made with sautéed mushrooms, cream cheese, and herbs, baked until golden and bubbly. It’s perfect for serving with bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz fresh mushrooms (cremini, button, or mixed), chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 tsp dried thyme)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or fontina cheese, divided
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • Fresh parsley or thyme, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil or butter over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion until soft, about 3–4 minutes.
  3. Add garlic and mushrooms. Cook for 8–10 minutes until mushrooms release moisture and brown. Stir in salt, pepper, and thyme.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise (if using), and half of the mozzarella cheese. Mix until smooth.
  5. Fold in the cooked mushroom mixture and half of the Parmesan cheese.
  6. Transfer mixture to a greased baking dish. Top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  7. Bake for 20–25 minutes until hot and bubbly with a golden top.
  8. Garnish with chopped parsley or thyme. Serve warm with bread, crackers, or vegetables.

Notes

  • Make sure mushrooms are fully cooked to prevent a watery dip.
  • Prepare ahead by assembling and refrigerating before baking.
  • Use any cheese blend you prefer for different flavor profiles.
