How does the Air Fryer work?

Air Fryers are my favorite kitchen gadget and a bit special in my opinion. They can take delicious foods and make them taste just like they were made in a deep fryer.  The best part about air fryers is that they are usually compact little gadgets that sit perfectly on your countertop waiting on you to use them.  But how does the air fryer work? The Air fryer works by using a heating element that produces hot air, which is then circulated using a fan. Because of this, your food will be delicious, crispy, and typically finished a lot faster than using a conventional oven.  Another thing to take into account with the air fryer is that it doesn’t need a lot of oil, just enough to usually coat your food or to create a nonstick surface on the basket. You can read more about the best oils for the air fryer here. 

Ingredients Needed:

Frozen Mozzarella Sticks - Use your favorite brand of frozen mozzarella sticks.  Make sure you grab some marinara sauce for dipping!  I love making frozen mozzarella cheese sticks. The melty cheese and crispy coating are what make the perfect, gooey mozzarella sticks.

How to Make Air Fryer Frozen Mozzarella Sticks

NOTE: All air fryers aren’t created equal. I use a Cosori 5.8qt air fryer and find that this is the perfect recipe for temperature and time for this mozzarella stick recipe. If you are using a different brand of air fryer, make sure you do a test run and start checking on the cheese sticks a minute or two before they are finished. You may have to add or take away a minute is you’re using a different brand of air fryer.  I love these mozzarella string cheese sticks as a snack, and so do my kids. It’s one of my favorite easy appetizer recipes.  MORE AIR FRYER RECIPES:
