Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 flour tortillas (8-inch size)
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons softened butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 clove fresh minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon Italian herbs
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter with garlic powder or minced fresh garlic, salt, and chopped parsley or preferred herbs. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated to create a flavorful garlic spread.
  2. Assemble the Tortilla: Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin, even layer of the garlic butter mixture over the entire surface of the tortilla. Then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese evenly on top, leaving about a 1/2 inch border along the edges to prevent cheese from leaking out during cooking.
  3. Fold or Roll the Tortilla: Carefully fold the tortilla in half over the cheese or roll it tightly, pressing gently along the fold or edge to seal the cheese filling inside.
  4. Air Fry to Perfection: Preheat your air fryer to 360°F (182°C). Place the assembled tortilla in the air fryer basket. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until both sides are golden brown and crisp, and the cheese inside has melted thoroughly.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the cheesy tortilla garlic bread from the air fryer and allow it to cool for 1-2 minutes to let the cheese set slightly. Slice as desired and serve warm for the best gooey and crispy experience.

Notes

  • Don’t overfill the tortilla with cheese to prevent leaks and mess in the air fryer.
  • Use softened butter for easier spreading and better garlic flavor infusion.
  • Preheat your air fryer to ensure crispiness from the start.
  • Flip the tortilla halfway through cooking for even browning on both sides.
  • Optionally brush melted butter on the cooked bread for a shiny, rich finish.
