Yield:
8 Toasts

Ingredients

2 tbsp (30 ml)  butter

454 g  sliced crimini mushrooms (about 4 cups)

Sea salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

1 19 oz (540 ml) can white kidney beans, drained and rinsed

2 tbsp (30 ml) mayonnaise

2 tbsp (30 ml) fresh lemon juice

Zest of 1 lemon

¼ tsp (1 ml) garlic powder

2 tbsp (30 ml) chives, minced, plus more for garnish
1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil

8 - 1” slices sourdough bread

½ cup (125 ml) shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Melt butter over medium heat in a skillet. Add the mushrooms and stir to coat, then season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring every few minutes, until mushrooms are tender, about 7-8 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine beans, mayonnaise, lemon juice and zest, and garlic powder; roughly mash with a fork. Add chives; stir to combine.
  3. Preheat air fryer to 400°F/200°C. Lightly brush the toast on both sides with olive oil, place in the basket of the air fryer, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until golden and crisp.
  4. Carefully remove bread from the air fryer and spread a thin layer of beans on each slice. Nestle the mushrooms on top and sprinkle with cheese. Place back in the preheated air fryer and cook for 3 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Work in batches, if necessary. Serve warm, garnished with more chives, if desired.

Notes

Swap crimini mushrooms for shiitake or oyster mushrooms for a fancier tartine!
