Air Fryer Mozzarella Sticks

Ingredients

• 12 mozzarella string cheese sticks, frozen
• ½ cup flour
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• Marinara, to serve

Method

1. 1

   Freeze the cheese sticks solid, then coat in flour, egg, and seasoned breadcrumbs. Double-dip for a thicker crust.

2. 2

   Preheat to 390°F and set a Vailnd rectangle liner in your slim basket.

3. 3

   Arrange the sticks in a single layer, not touching.

4. 4

   Air fry 6–8 minutes until golden — watch closely near the end.

5. 5

   Lift the liner out; any leaked cheese goes with it. Serve with marinara.
