Ingredients
- Cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or gouda)
- 1 cup bread crumbs (plain or seasoned)
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup flour
- Seasoning (salt, pepper, and herbs like rosemary or thyme)
Instructions
- Prep your cheese: Cut cheese into bite-sized cubes or sticks.
- Set up a breading station: Place flour, eggs, and bread crumbs in separate bowls, seasoning the flour.
- Bread the cheese: Dip in flour, then egg, and coat with bread crumbs; double-dip for extra crispiness.
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 5 minutes.
- Arrange the cheese in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Air fry for about 6-8 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces.
Notes
For a gluten-free option, use almond flour or crushed gluten-free crackers instead of bread crumbs. Experiment with vegan cheese for a plant-based version.
