Made these last night. I didn't have the cheese on hand and only had whole wheat regular bread crumbs and they came out GREAT! Drizzled with some homemade ranch and served as a main entree for dinner with some rice, black beans and a salad. Wire rack a must for them to crisp up since the mushrooms release some liquid in the oven. Thanks for the recipe these were awesome and just what I was looking for!

Jackie Harmon: I have not tried it but you should be able to use a vegan milk like almond milk in place of the egg and you can omit the parmesan or I found this recipe for a vegan parmesan: http://www.veggieful.com/2012/08/vegan-parmesan-cheese-recipe.html

I'd like to make this vegan without the egg and cheese has anyone tried?

Katherine Struthers: As long as the button mushroom caps are not too large you should be able to use the recipe as written. If they are really large I would recommend halving or quartering them to ensure that they cook all the way through.

I'd like to make these as breaded mushroom caps for vegetarians to have while the omnivores are eating steak. What changes do you suggest I make if I don't want to slice them?

Um Nemleh: I have not tried this with regular bread crumbs and if they do work the fries will not be nearly as crispy. A lot of grocery stores carry panko breadcrumbs now, they should be in with the other bread crumbs or in the Asian section. Yogurt should work instead of butter milk.

Hi Kevin, if I don't have buttermilk, can I use plain yogurt instead?

Can I use any breadcrumbs or does it have to be Panko? Never heard of Panko before:)

Anonymous: You should be able to use buttermilk or milk instead of the egg, just skip the initial dredging in flour step and go straight to the buttermilk.
