I tripled this recipe and froze some of the breaded cheese - now I can have warm, gooey mozzarella sticks whenever I want!

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
Kosher salt
6 mozzarella cheese sticks
Cooking spray
Marinara sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the flour, beaten eggs and breadcrumbs in three separate shallow bowls. Season the flour and breadcrumbs with 1 teaspoon salt each.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut the cheese sticks in half crosswise; dip in the flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs. Repeat to coat each again in the flour, egg and breadcrumbs. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet; freeze 2 hours.
  • Preheat a 6-quart air fryer to 400˚ F. Coat the breaded cheese with cooking spray. Add to the air fryer basket in an even layer and cook, turning halfway through, until crisp and golden, about 6 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce.
