contents We present an approximation method based on the mixing formula (Hull & White 1987, Romano & Touzi 1997) for pricing European options in Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models. This approximation is based on a Taylor expansion of the option price. It is implemented using a recursive algorithm that allows us to obtain closed form approximations of the option price of any order (subject to technical conditions on the background driving Lévy process). This method can be used for any type of Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard stochastic volatility model. Explicit results are presented in the case where the stationary distribution of the background driving Lévy process is inverse Gaussian or gamma. In both of these cases, the approximation compares favorably to option prices produced by the characteristic function. In particular, we also perform an error analysis of the approximation, which is partially based on the results of Das & Langrené (2022). We obtain asymptotic results for the error of the $N^{\text{th}}$ order approximation and error bounds when the variance process satisfies an inverse Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process or a gamma Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process.
