Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat the air fryer to 390℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Beat the eggs in another shallow bowl, and add the flour to a 3rd shallow bowl.
  2. Dredge: Dip each mozzarella stick to fully coat in the flour, then the beaten eggs, into the breadcrumb mixture eggs again, and finally breadcrumb mixture one last time. So flour, eggs, breadcrumbs, eggs, breadcrumbs. Place them on the baking sheet and repeat until all the sticks are dredged.
  3. Cook: Place the mozzarella sticks in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook them in batches if there isn't enough room. Spray the sticks with a bit of cooking spray, close the lid, and cook for 6 to 7 minutes or until golden brown.
  4. Serve warm with marinara sauce.

Notes

  • I cut my mozzarella sticks in half since they were a bit too long. 
  • Nutritional information is for 2 half sticks or 1 whole stick.
  • Let your mozzarella sticks cool down to room temperature before storing leftovers. You can transfer them to an airtight container or sealable freezer bag. These leftovers with last 1-2 weeks.
  • You can reheat leftovers either in the oven or your air fryer. Preheat your oven or air fryer to 350℉. If using the oven, place the sticks on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake or air fry for 5-10 minutes or until heated through.
