Ingredients

  • 8 mozzarella string cheese sticks, halved
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup pasta sauce, warmed

Steps

  1. Coat the cheese in flour, egg, then breadcrumbs; repeat egg and crumbs for a thicker coat.
  2. Freeze 30 minutes so the cheese doesn't leak.
  3. Air fry at 390°F for 6-7 minutes until golden.
  4. Serve with warm sauce.

Swaps

  • Out of breadcrumbs? Crush crackers or toast and pulse stale bread, or use rolled oats.
  • No jarred sauce? Simmer a can of crushed tomatoes with garlic, oil and salt for 10 minutes.

Times are a guide; ovens and air fryers vary. Cook poultry to 165°F, ground meat to 160°F, and pork and fish to 145°F. Diet tags come from the ingredient list; check labels for allergens.
