Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Trim the stems and slice them into thick pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, cornstarch, black pepper, and half of the garlic powder.
Toss the mushroom slices in the flour mixture until evenly coated.
Spread the coated mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toss again to ensure they are well coated in oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the mushrooms are golden and crispy.
While the mushrooms are baking, prepare the chilli sauce by combining the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, remaining garlic powder, and red chilli flakes in a small saucepan.
Heat the saucepan over medium heat, stirring continuously, until the sauce starts to thicken slightly. Remove from heat.
Once the mushrooms are crispy, transfer them to a large bowl and pour the chilli sauce over them. Toss to coat each piece evenly.
Serve the crispy chilli mushrooms hot, garnished with chopped spring onions and sesame seeds.
