Air Fryer Cheesy Tortilla Garlic Bread

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I Adore This Recipe Because The Tortillas Cook Up Golden And Crispy On The Outside While Keeping A Cheesy, Gooey Center. I Like How Fast It Comes Together—I Can Have These Ready In Minutes Without Turning On The Oven. They’re Versatile Too; I Can Change The Cheese Or Add Spices To Make Each Batch Unique.

Ingredients

(Her’s A Tip: Check Out The Full List Of Ingredients And Measurements In The Recipe Card Below.)

4 Flour Tortillas
2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Melted
2 Garlic Cloves, Minced
½ Teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 Tablespoon Chopped Parsley Or Dried Italian Herbs
1 Cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
¼ Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt To Taste

Directions

1. I Mix Together The Melted Butter, Minced Garlic, Garlic Powder, Herbs, And A Pinch Of Salt In A Small Bowl To Make The Garlic Butter Spread.

2. I Place The Tortillas On A Flat Surface And Brush One Side Of Each Generously With The Garlic Butter Mixture.

3. I Sprinkle Mozzarella And Parmesan Cheese Evenly Over Half Of Each Tortilla, Then Fold The Tortillas In Half To Form A Semicircle.

4. I Preheat The Air Fryer To 375°F (190°C) For 2 To 3 Minutes.

5. I Place The Folded Tortillas In The Air Fryer Basket In A Single Layer, Cooking In Batches If Needed To Avoid Overcrowding.

6. I Air Fry Them For 5 To 7 Minutes, Flipping Halfway Through, Until Golden Brown And Crispy On Both Sides And The Cheese Is Fully Melted.

7. I Remove Them From The Air Fryer And Let Cool Slightly Before Slicing Into Wedges And Serving.

Servings And Timing

I Usually Make 4 Servings With This Recipe. The Entire Process Takes About 15 Minutes From Start To Finish, Including Air Frying Time.

Variations

I Sometimes Add Crushed Red Pepper Flakes Or Chopped Jalapeños Inside For A Spicy Kick. I Also Like Using Cheddar Or Pepper Jack Cheese Instead Of Mozzarella For Extra Flavor. Serving These With Marinara, Ranch, Or Garlic Aioli Makes Them Even More Enjoyable.

Storage/Reheating

I Store Leftover Tortilla Garlic Bread In An Airtight Container In The Refrigerator For Up To 2 Days. I Reheat Them In The Air Fryer For A Few Minutes To Bring Back Their Crisp Texture, Which I Find Works Better Than The Microwave.

FAQs

Can I Use Store-Bought Garlic Butter Instead Of Making My Own?

Yes, I Sometimes Use Store-Bought Garlic Butter To Save Time, But I Add Extra Herbs For A Fresh Flavor.

Can I Make These Ahead Of Time?

I Can Prepare Them Up To Folding And Refrigerate For A Few Hours, Then Air Fry Right Before Serving.

Can I Use Whole Wheat Or Gluten-Free Tortillas?

Absolutely! I Just Make Sure They Are Medium Or Large Size To Fit The Cheese And Fold Properly.

How Do I Prevent The Cheese From Oozing Out?

I Sprinkle The Cheese Only On Half Of The Tortilla And Fold Carefully, Pressing The Edges Slightly Before Air Frying.

Can I Make More Than Four Tortillas At Once?

Yes, But I Cook Them In Batches To Avoid Overcrowding The Air Fryer Basket, Ensuring Even Crispiness.

Conclusion

I Always Find That Air Fryer Cheesy Tortilla Garlic Bread Is A Fast, Delicious Treat That Satisfies Any Cheesy Garlic Craving. It’s Crispy, Gooey, And Perfect As A Snack, Side Dish, Or Appetizer. I Love How Quick It Is To Make Without Sacrificing Flavor, And It’s Fun To Customize With Different Cheeses Or Spices.
