  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 12 mozzarella sticks

SCALE:

1X

YIELDS:

Directions

  1. Start by preparing your work center by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. Then, whisk eggs in a deep bowl/plate, then combine bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, onion powder, and garlic powder in a separate deep bowl/dish.
  2. Then, dip each mozzarella stick in the eggs and coat completely, then coat in the bread crumb mixture. Repeat this process on all mozzarella sticks.
  3. Place coated mozzarella sticks in the freezer for a minimum of 30 minutes.
  4. Remove and repeat the process once more. Dip in eggs and coat in bread crumb mixture, then place back in the freezer for 30 minutes.
  5. After you completed these two steps, you are ready to air fry the mozzarella sticks.
  6. Lay the mozzarella sticks in the air fryer. Option to add parchment paper. Please see notes below.
  7. Air fry at 360F for 8-10 minutes.
  8. Serve immediately with marinara sauce, enjoy!

Notes

Each air fryer is different, use parchment paper at your own discretion. I did not use any and mine did not stick or melt.
Freezer is mandatory for this recipe, otherwise your cheese will melt too fast while air frying.
