Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and remove the stems, setting the caps aside. Finely chop the stems.
In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced shallots and garlic, sautéing until they become fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add the chopped mushroom stems to the skillet, cooking until they are soft and golden, approximately 5 minutes.
Transfer the mushroom stem mixture to a large bowl and add gluten-free breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Beat the egg in a small bowl, then add it to the breadcrumb mixture, stirring until everything is well combined.
Brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil on a baking sheet. Place the mushroom caps on the sheet, cavity side up.
Evenly spoon the mixture into each mushroom cap, pressing gently to secure it in place.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.
Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
