Ingredients (4-5servings) * 8 mozzarella string cheese sticks * 3 large eggs * 1 tbsp water * 1/2 cup breadcrumbs * 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs * 1 tsp Italian seasoning blend * 1/4 tsp garlic powder * 1/4 tsp smoked paprika * 1/3 cup all-purpose flour * salt and pepper to taste * cooking oil spray Directions 1. Preheat the air fryer at 390F 2. Cut the cheese sticks in half, then set aside. (I like to keep them in the freezer so they don’t get soft) 3. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and water then set aside. In another small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and paprika, and stir until all combined. In a third bowl, combine the flour, salt, and pepper and stir well. 4. Dip each of the cheese sticks into the eggs, then dredge in the flour mixture. Dip it back into the eggs, then dredge in the bread crumb mixture. 5. Place the sticks on a small parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for about 20-30 minutes (longer the better this way the cheese won’t over melt in the air fryer) 6. Spray the frozen sticks with cooking spray. Place the sticks in the basket in a single layer. 7. Then, cook for about 6-7 minutes or until browned and crispy. (Check halfway so they do not overcook) 8. Serve immediately with warm marinara sauce and enjoy! #airfryer #recipes #easyrecipe #toddlerfood #toddlersnacks #gamedayfood
