Homemade Mozzarella Sticks

How to make Homemade Mozzarella Sticks

Ingredients

6 Mozzarella Sticks

1 cup Panko or other bread crumbs

1 tbsp Italian seasoning

2 eggs, beaten

¼ black pepper, optional

½ tsp salt, optional

¼ cup all purpose flour

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk the eggs

In another bowl, combine the bread crumbs, seasoning and salt and pepper if using

The flour is placed into a small dish by itself

Cut each mozzarella stick into three pieces and set to the side

One cheese piece at a time, roll it in the flour and then the egg mix, then quickly roll the stick into the breading mix

Dip the same stick into the egg mix again and then the breading

Using a mister, spray the Air Fryer basket with Olive Oil, do not use a non stick spray as it can damage the lining of the basket

Place the cheese bites in a single layer of the Air Fryer basket, do not overfill the basket. There should be room between each stick.

Set the temperature at 400* and the timer for 6 minutes, if they need more time, add an additional 2 minutes.

Remove and set on a plate, repeat until all cheese bites are done.

Dip into your favorite sauce.

Enjoy!
