Cheese Mixture
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Other
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for cooking the garlic bread evenly.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, and salt; mix well to create the garlic butter spread.
- Brush Tortillas: Evenly brush the garlic butter mixture over one side of each flour tortilla, covering the surface completely for flavor.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese followed by grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the buttered side of each tortilla to create a cheesy topping.
- Arrange in Air Fryer: Place the tortillas cheese-side up in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if needed to avoid overlap.
- Air Fry: Cook for 3-5 minutes until the cheese has melted, is bubbly, and the tortilla edges turn golden brown and crispy.
- Finish: Remove the cheesy tortillas and sprinkle with dried parsley for a fresh herb finish.
- Serve: Cut the cheesy garlic tortillas into wedges and serve immediately as a delightful appetizer or snack.
