Notes
- Freeze Before Cooking: If you have time, you can pop your coated cheese bites into the freezer for 10-15 minutes before air frying them. This helps them hold their shape and not melt too fast when cooking.

- Double Coat for Extra Crunch: Want an even crispier bite? Repeat the breading process for an extra layer of crunch. This could also help with preventing the cheese from oozing out.

- Don’t Overcrowd the Basket: Cook in batches if needed to allow for even crisping. Bake: If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake these at 400°F for about 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown.
