Ingredients
Scale
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Tortilla Toppings
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it is at the ideal temperature for cooking the tortillas evenly and crisply.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well to create a flavorful garlic butter spread.
- Brush Tortillas: Using a brush or spoon, evenly spread the garlic butter mixture over one side of each flour tortilla, coating the surface thoroughly.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly on top of the buttered side of the tortillas, ensuring each tortilla has a good coverage of cheese for melting.
- Air Fry Tortillas: Place the tortillas cheese side up inside the air fryer basket in a single layer. Depending on your air fryer size, you may need to cook in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the edges of the tortilla are golden brown and crispy.
- Finish and Serve: Carefully remove the tortillas from the air fryer and sprinkle dried parsley over the top for added flavor and color. Cut into wedges and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Notes
- Cooking times may vary slightly depending on your air fryer model, so watch closely to avoid burning.
- For a stronger garlic flavor, you can add an extra clove of minced garlic to the butter mixture.
- Feel free to substitute mozzarella with other melting cheeses like cheddar or Monterey Jack if preferred.
- This recipe works well with both flour and corn tortillas, although flour tortillas crisp up better.
- Serve as a snack or alongside soups and salads for a tasty accompaniment.
