Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 flour tortilla shells
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) butter, softened
- 1/2 cup (60 grams) grated mozzarella cheese
Seasonings:
- Garlic powder, to taste
- Italian seasoning, to taste
Garnish:
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the tortillas by laying them flat on a clean surface and generously coating each one with softened butter, ensuring complete coverage to the edges for optimal flavor infusion.
- Sprinkle mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, and italian seasoning evenly across the buttered tortillas, then stack one tortilla on top of the other to create layers.
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F, allowing it to reach the optimal temperature for crispy results.
- Carefully transfer the layered tortilla stack into the air fryer basket, positioning it to ensure even heat circulation.
- Cook for 4-6 minutes, monitoring closely to prevent burning and achieve a golden, crisp texture with lightly browned edges.
- Remove the tortilla garlic bread from the air fryer with caution, using tongs or a heat-resistant spatula to prevent burns.
- Optional: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant touch and additional flavor complexity.
- Serve immediately while hot and crispy, enjoying the perfect blend of buttery, cheesy, and garlicky goodness.
Notes
- Layering Matters Stack tortillas carefully to ensure even butter and cheese distribution, preventing dry or soggy spots during cooking.
- Cheese Selection Opt for freshly grated mozzarella instead of pre-shredded for better melting and richer flavor profile.
- Customization Experiment with different cheese blends like parmesan or adding red pepper flakes for extra kick and personalized taste.
- Watch Closely Monitor air fryer closely as tortillas can quickly burn due to thin composition, adjusting cooking time based on specific appliance performance.
