Ingredients
- 10 mozzarella sticks, frozen
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees Fahrenheit (198 degrees Celsius). Prepare the basket with a nonstick cooking spray, parchment paper, or foil after preheating.
- Arrange Mozzarella Sticks: Place the frozen mozzarella sticks in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring there is enough space around each one for hot air circulation.
- Air Fry: Cook the mozzarella sticks at 390 degrees Fahrenheit for 7 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time for even crispiness.
- Serve: Carefully remove the mozzarella sticks from the air fryer and serve immediately with marinara sauce or your preferred dipping sauce.
Notes
- All air fryers vary; the cooking time and temperature are optimized for a Cosori 5.8qt air fryer. Adjust time slightly if using a different model.
- Try different dipping sauces like ranch, BBQ, buffalo, or blue cheese to suit your taste.
- Store leftover mozzarella sticks in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat leftovers at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 2-3 minutes until crispy and melty.
- For best flavor and texture, enjoy mozzarella sticks fresh out of the air fryer.
