These ooey, gooey mozzarella sticks are sure to impress. The best part: because they are air fried, they're better for you than their fried cousin! Season with garlic salt and serve with marinara sauce for dipping.

Steps:
- Place water, flour, cornstarch, cornmeal, garlic powder, and salt in a wide, shallow bowl; mix into a batter the consistency of pancake batter. Adjust ingredients if needed to get the right consistency.
- Stir panko, salt, pepper, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and basil together in another wide, shallow bowl.
- Lightly coat each mozzarella stick with flour. Dip each stick in the batter and toss in the panko mixture until fully coated. Place sticks in a single layer on a baking sheet. Freeze for at least 1 hour.
- Heat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions. Place a row of mozzarella sticks in the fryer basket. Spray with a light coat of cooking spray. Cook sticks for 6 minutes. Open fryer and flip the sticks with tongs. Continue cooking until golden brown, 7 to 9 minutes.

[email protected]Overall, I thought these mozzarella sticks were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't great either.

[email protected]These mozzarella sticks were a bit too crispy for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had cooked them for a shorter amount of time.

[email protected]The mozzarella sticks were a bit too oily for my liking. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less oil in the air fryer.

[email protected]These mozzarella sticks were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some garlic powder or Italian seasoning to the breading.

[email protected]I was a bit skeptical about making mozzarella sticks in an air fryer, but I'm so glad I tried it! They turned out amazing. The breading was crispy and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making these again.

[email protected]These air-fried mozzarella sticks are a game-changer! They're crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, just like the ones you get from a restaurant. And they're so easy to make, too. I'll definitely be making these again and again.
