Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 2 flour tortillas (soft taco size, or any size that fits in your air fryer)
- Softened butter (approximately 2 tablespoons, about 1 tablespoon per tortilla)
- Shredded mozzarella cheese (generous amount, about 1/2 to 3/4 cup)
- Garlic powder (sprinkle to taste)
- Italian seasoning (sprinkle to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the tortillas: Use a butter knife to spread softened butter evenly over both flour tortillas, covering them right up to the edges. Approximately one tablespoon of butter per tortilla works well.
- Add cheese and seasonings: Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over one side of each buttered tortilla. Then lightly sprinkle garlic powder and Italian seasoning on top of the cheese for a flavorful kick.
- Assemble the garlic bread: Stack the two cheese-loaded tortillas on top of each other, cheese sides facing up, to create a layered cheesy tortilla.
- Air fry to crisp: Place the stacked tortillas into a preheated air fryer at 375°F (190°C). Cook them for about 5 minutes, watching carefully until the cheese melts completely with a deep golden brown color and crispy edges.
- Cool and slice: Remove the cheesy tortilla garlic bread from the air fryer, let it cool for 1-2 minutes to firm up, then use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to slice it into individual servings.
Notes
- Use soft taco size tortillas or adjust cooking time for larger sizes to ensure even crisping.
- Make sure the butter is softened to spread easily over the tortillas without tearing them.
- Keep an eye on the air fryer near the end of cooking to avoid burning the cheese.
- Feel free to add other toppings like red pepper flakes or grated Parmesan for extra flavor.
- Serve warm for the best taste and texture.
