Air Fryer Cheese Curds
Whip up some tasty Wisconsin-worthy bites with these golden, delicious Air-Fryer Cheese Curds.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces cheese curds cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon parsley fresh, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 egg large
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Crack the eggs into a second bowl and beat them. Place the all-purpose flour into a third bowl.
- Coat each cheese curd with flour, dip into the beaten eggs, and then roll in the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.
- Repeat, dipping the coated cheese curd into the egg and then into the breadcrumb mixture once again. (You want that thick crust!)
- Lightly spray the air-fryer basket with olive oil using an oil mister to prevent sticking.
- Arrange the cheese curds in the air-fryer basket in a single layer. They should not be touching. Air fry at 400 °F for 6-8 minutes. Remember to flip the curds halfway through. Keep an eye on them.
- Serve the cheese curds warm and crispy from the air fryer. DEVOUR!
