Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Gently clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and carefully remove the stems. Set the mushroom caps aside and finely chop the stems.
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped mushroom stems, shallots, and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the spinach wilts. Stir in the heavy cream and cook for an additional minute. Remove the skillet from heat.
Stir in the Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper into the spinach mixture until well combined.
In a small bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, panko breadcrumbs, lemon zest, and 1 tablespoon of melted butter. Set aside.
Brush the tops of the mushroom caps lightly with olive oil and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, gill-side up.
Carefully spoon the spinach mixture into each mushroom cap, distributing it evenly. Top each filled mushroom with a generous sprinkle of the breadcrumb mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and the mushrooms are tender.
Serve warm as an appetizer or a side dish, garnished with additional Parmesan or fresh herbs if desired.
