Description

A quick air fryer snack made with crispy tortillas layered with butter, garlic seasoning, and melted mozzarella cheese, creating a cheesy garlic bread-style treat in minutes.


Ingredients

  • 2 large flour tortillas (20 to 25 cm diameter)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Marinara sauce for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 190°C for 2–3 minutes.
  2. Spread 1 tablespoon of softened butter evenly over one side of each tortilla.
  3. Sprinkle garlic powder and Italian seasoning over the buttered sides.
  4. Place one tortilla on a flat surface with the buttered side facing down.
  5. Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
  6. Top with the second tortilla with the buttered side facing up.
  7. Carefully transfer the stacked tortillas to the air fryer basket.
  8. Cook for 4–5 minutes until the tortillas are golden and the cheese is melted.
  9. Remove from the air fryer and let rest for 1–2 minutes.
  10. Slice into wedges using a pizza cutter.
  11. Garnish with chopped parsley or red pepper flakes if desired.
  12. Serve warm with marinara sauce if preferred.

Notes

  • Butter helps the tortillas crisp and adds classic garlic bread flavor.
  • Press the tortillas gently together so the filling stays in place while cooking.
  • A mix of mozzarella and cheddar adds a sharper cheese flavor.
  • Whole wheat tortillas can be used for a slightly heartier version.
  • Add vegetables like olives, bell peppers, or mushrooms for extra toppings.
  • Reheat leftovers in the air fryer for the best crisp texture.
