Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 flour tortilla shells
- 1 tbsp butter, softened
- 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- Sprinkle of garlic powder
- Sprinkle of Italian seasoning
- Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the tortillas: Lay out both tortilla shells on a clean surface. Using a spoon or butter knife, evenly spread the softened butter across each tortilla, making sure to cover all the way to the edges for full flavor.
- Add toppings: Sprinkle grated mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning evenly over the buttered tortillas. Place one tortilla on top of the other to form a sandwich.
- Air fry the tortillas: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Once up to temperature, place the tortilla sandwich in the air fryer basket in a single layer without overlapping. Air fry for 4-6 minutes, watching closely until the tortillas turn golden brown and crispy.
- Remove and garnish: Carefully take the crispy tortilla garlic bread out of the air fryer. If desired, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top to add color and freshness.
- Serve: Serve immediately while warm and crispy. These are delicious as a side for pasta, soups, or salads, or as a snack on their own. For an extra burst of flavor, serve with marinara sauce, salsa, or your preferred dipping sauce.
Notes
- Keep a close eye on the tortillas while air frying to prevent burning, as cooking times may vary by air fryer model.
- Make sure tortillas are placed in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overlapping to ensure even crisping.
- For a stronger garlic flavor, you can lightly brush some garlic-infused olive oil instead of butter.
- This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled; adjust cooking time slightly if stacking multiple pieces in batches.
- Use fresh herbs like parsley or basil as garnish to enhance appearance and taste.
