Ingredients
Scale
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
Cheese & Tortillas
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the garlic butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, salt, and dried parsley thoroughly to create a flavorful garlic butter spread.
- Brush tortillas: Lay out the four large flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Using a brush or spoon, evenly spread the garlic butter mixture over one side of each tortilla, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor.
- Add cheese layers: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the garlic-buttered side of each tortilla, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese for an extra cheesy topping.
- Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes to ensure even cooking and crispy results.
- Air fry the tortillas: Place one or two tortillas, depending on the size of your air fryer basket, into the air fryer basket. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the edges are crispy and the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
- Cool and serve: Remove the tortillas carefully using tongs and let them cool for a minute to firm up. Cut into wedges and serve warm as a delicious cheesy garlic bread alternative.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, you can flip the tortillas halfway through air frying.
- Customize the cheese blend by adding cheddar or Monterey Jack for different flavors.
- Serve with marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the air fryer for best texture.
