Air Fryer Baked Feta Cheese is a great and easy appetizer, served typically with diced cherry tomatoes. There is nothing better than a great dish of creamy hot and rich feta cheese surrounded by tomatoes.

Air Fryer Baked Feta Cheese

This is one of my favorite appetizers, I grew up with many Greek friends, and they always had this at their house when I would go to a get-together or holiday. I love a typical Mediterranean dish that is simply prepared, and today, I drizzled some honey and olive oil over it with a dash of oregano, sea salt, and chili flakes.

I plan to use the leftovers to make Baked Feta Pasta, with hints of cherry tomatoes and oregano. Making this appetizer in either the air fryer or oven could not be any easier.

If you are looking for even more appetizers for your air fryer, here are some of my favorites, Air Fryer Creamy Spinach & Cheese Bread, Air Fryer Easy Potato Skin Recipe, and of course Air Fryer Chinese Buffet Crab Casserole Dip.

How To Make Air Fryer Baked Feta Cheese

This is a really simple dish, which all starts with a block of feta cheese. Which, I purchased in the grocery store, near the crumbled feta cheese.

Look for a block of feta cheese, which is usually sold in either olive oil or a water bath. Either one will work for this recipe, I chose the water bath one, since I knew I would be adding my own olive oil and honey, and I didn’t want to overpower the feta cheese.

Some Common Questions Asked About This Recipe-

Can I Make This In The Oven?

Absolutely, preheat your oven to 400 degrees F, follow the rest of the instructions from the recipe card or above, and then bake for about 18-20 minutes.

The key is to remove the feta cheese once it’s soft. You don’t want to overcook it as the top will become charred. Feta Cheese is wonderful baked in the oven. And this is a foolproof way to bake a feta cheese recipe.

Some Pro Tips For Making Air Fryer Baked Feta Cheese

  • Use good quality Feta Cheese.
  • Choose a Feta Cheese that has been water bathed rather than soaked in olive oil; otherwise, it will be too oily, as the feta cheese would have soaked up some of the oil.
  • Experiment with herbs, any spices you like will go, I stuck with traditional Mediettrain apices, Oregano and Chili Flakes, but a few other options would be a cayenne pepper to add some spice.
  • Check your feta cheese about halfway through the air fryer process so it doesn’t end up char. Remember, every air fryer is slightly different.
  • Serve with fresh fruits and vegetables for a great appetizer.

What To Serve With Air Fryer Baked Feta Cheese

My favorites are really fresh vegetables, but this dip goes well with anything, here are some great and easy options.

  • Cherry Tomatoes
  • Olives
  • Carrots
  • Zucchini
  • Bell Peppers

Is This Dip Healthy?

Yes, it’s actually really healthy, and it’s a Weight Watcher Friendly option, and it’s also Low-Carb and KETO Friendly.

What Is Another Name For This Dish?

If you are looking for the traditional Greek dish of Feta Psiti, this is the same recipe that you will find in Greek households, in Greece, and throughout the world.
