Instructions
-
Step 1
Bread each mozzarella piece in flour, then egg, then seasoned breadcrumbs, pressing firmly so the coating sticks.
-
Step 2
For a thicker crust, repeat the egg and breadcrumb coating, then place the sticks on a tray.
-
Step 3
Freeze for at least 30 minutes so the cheese stays inside while the outside crisps.
-
Step 4
Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F on the CHIPS preset.
-
Step 5
Air fry in a single layer for 6-8 minutes until golden, stopping before the cheese leaks heavily.
-
Step 6
Serve immediately with warm marinara sauce for the best pull-apart texture.
