How to Make Perfectly Crispy Mozzarella Sticks in Your Air Fryer

Cooking frozen mozzarella sticks in an air fryer delivers a golden, crunchy snack without excess oil. The hot air circulation recreates that deep-fried texture in a healthier way. Start by preheating the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the sticks in a single layer in the basket, avoiding overcrowding. If needed, cook in batches to keep the air flowing freely. Set the timer for 6–8 minutes. Halfway through, gently shake the basket to turn the sticks for even browning. Adjust time slightly if your air fryer runs hot or cool. Once done, let the sticks rest for a minute to allow the cheese to set. Serve with marinara, ranch, or your favorite dipping sauce for a quick and tasty appetizer.
