Air Fryer Fried Goat Cheese

Air Fryer Fried Goat Cheese-I love a great piece of goat cheese. Today, I took a traditional mozzarella recipe and made great air-fried goat cheese, just like a traditional mozzarella stick. Easy and absolutely delicious.

This is one of my favorites if you are looking for a great and easy appetizer or snack.

I lightly coated it with an egg wash and then tossed it into a batch of bread crumbs, then frozen, and then I repeated the wash and bread crumbs, so it would be amazing when it hit the air fryer.

Goat Cheese

The most important thing for the recipe is to choose a great goat cheese. If you have never purchased goat cheese, it’s located in the grocery store’s specialty cheese. It’s rather inexpensive, $5.00 for a log.

They come in many different coatings; you can purchase either plain or get some with a seasoning. Today, I found a great goat cheese with some seasonings and thought it would add flavor.

Goat Cheese is a soft cheese, which is why I froze it twice. The key to this recipe is to really make sure that it is frozen solid before it hits the air fryer. And do not pre-heat the air fryer. Otherwise, it will melt.

How To Make Air Fryer Fried Goat Cheese

Ingredients Needed

• Herb Goat Cheese
• Egg
• Water
• Seasoned Bread Crumbs
• Optional: Marinara Sauce For Serving

Start by cutting the cheese into 1/3 to 1/2 inch pieces.

Spray a small baking sheet, with cooking oil.

In a small bowl, mix the egg and water. In the other bowl, add the bread crumbs. Dip the sliced goat cheese into the egg wash and then into the bread crumbs. Place the tray into the freezer until they are frozen solid (about 30 minutes)

When the goat cheese is frozen solid, dip it again in the egg mixture and then into the bread crumbs. Place in the freezer for another 30 minutes, or until frozen solid.

Spray the basket with olive oil. Place the frozen goat cheese into the air fryer basket, spray with olive oil. Set the temperature to 370 degrees F and air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway, and respray the tops with olive oil.
