Homemade Mozzarella Sticks In The Air Fryer

One of my all-time favorite appetizers is mozzarella sticks!  I love the crispy outside and the warm, gooey inside.  They are especially delicious with a nice, zesty marinara sauce.  We often get these when we go out to eat as a family.  I has never occurred to me to try to make homemade mozzarella sticks.  It just seemed like to much of a hassle to try to fry them.  Also, I’ve never owned a deep fryer (and probably never will!).  But with the invention of the oil-free hot air fryer, I have discovered a ton of great hot air frying recipes that I can’t wait to try.  These tasty homemade mozzarella sticks are one of the recipes that I am most excited about.

If you don’t have an air fryer yet, you need to go out and get one.  There are plenty of guides on the internet to help you choose the right.  There are also a ton of hot air frying recipes to choose from.  If you love yummy potato snacks, please check out my Loaded Air Fryer Potato Wedges.  Or try these Air Fryer Mashed Potato Cakes.  I also have a great Air Fryer Appetizer for your next party with these Air Fryer Chicken Wings. They are simple, easy and delicious as well!   If you are looking for a dessert, the Air Fryer has you covered as well with these Air Fryer Blueberry Pies!
