Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth or paper towel. Cut off any tough stems and slice them in half if they are large.
In a medium bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Gradually add the low-fat milk to the dry ingredients, whisking until you have a smooth batter.
Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Dip each mushroom into the batter, ensuring it is completely coated, then let the excess batter drip off.
Place the coated mushrooms on the prepared baking tray with a little space between each.
Spray the mushrooms lightly with cooking spray to aid the crisping process.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve immediately as a snack or appetizer with your favorite low-fat dipping sauce.
