Ingredients

1 cup garbanzo bean flour
1/2 tsp. nutritional yeast
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. salt
10-15 baby portobellos
1 cup water
Chives, diced, to garnish

Sauce

1-1/2 Tbsp. organic mustard
3 Tbsp. organic agave
1-2 tsp. hot sauce or paprika (adjust to taste or omit)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet with oil.
  2. Remove mushroom stems. (You may want to remove top layer or skin of mushroom so batter sticks better to the batter.)
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk all batter ingredients together, except mushrooms and chives, until fully incorporated and smooth. With a fork, dip each portobello into batter to coat. Tap off excess batter and place on baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Then broil for 2-3 or until dark and golden.
  5. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together all sauce ingredients.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool. Drizzle sauce over top and sprinkle with chives.
