Craving a McDonald’s Snack Wrap but want a meatless version? This vegetarian dupe features crispy fried oyster mushrooms, shredded cheese, lettuce, and spicy ranch wrapped in a warm tortilla. Better than the original, and totally plant-based!
Prepare the mushrooms: Tear the oyster mushrooms into bite-sized clusters. Set aside.
Make the wet batter: In a bowl, whisk together ½ cup flour, 1 tsp Old Bay, and ⅛ tsp smoked paprika. Add enough water to form a smooth, pourable batter similar to pancake batter.
Make the dry dredge: In a separate bowl, mix 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs, 4 tsp Old Bay seasoning, and ½ tsp smoked paprika.
Coat the mushrooms: Dip each mushroom piece into the wet batter, shake off any excess batter, and then press it firmly into the dry dredge. Really pack on the dry mix by pressing and shaping it around the mushroom.
Fry the mushrooms: Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the mushrooms in batches, 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
Assemble the snack wraps: Warm your tortillas, then layer with lettuce, shredded cheese, crispy mushrooms, and a drizzle of Sriracha ranch. Fold and serve immediately!
Notes
The key to that signature “craggy” texture? Really press the dry dredge into each piece—don’t be shy.
Sriracha ranch is just ranch + Sriracha, mixed to taste. You can make it as mild or spicy as you want.
Not a fan of frying? Air fry the battered mushrooms at 375°F with a generous spray of oil until crispy.
