Ingredients

Scale

Cheesy Garlic Butter Mixture

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Cheesy Tortillas

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat fully, ensuring even cooking for your cheesy tortillas.
  2. Prepare the Garlic Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors.
  3. Brush Tortillas: Using a brush, evenly coat one side of each flour tortilla with the garlic butter mixture, making sure the surface is well covered to impart maximum flavor.
  4. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the buttered side of each tortilla, creating a good cheese layer for bubbling and melting.
  5. Arrange in Air Fryer: Place the tortillas cheese side up in the air fryer basket in a single layer. If needed, cook them in batches to avoid overlapping and to ensure crispiness.
  6. Air Fry: Cook the tortillas for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese has fully melted, looks bubbly, and the tortilla edges are golden brown and crisp.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Remove the crispy cheesy tortillas from the air fryer, sprinkle with dried parsley for a fresh herby finish, cut into wedges, and serve immediately while hot and gooey.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter mixture.
  • You can substitute mozzarella cheese with a blend of cheddar and Monterey Jack for a different flavor profile.
  • Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket for even cooking and crispy edges.
  • Use fresh garlic for a more intense garlic flavor compared to garlic powder alone.
  • If you want a gluten-free option, use gluten-free tortillas instead of flour tortillas.
