These are the best arancini I have ever had! The air fryer makes them so crispy on the outside and the filling is so creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making these again and again.

I made these for my family and they were a hit! Everyone loved them. The only thing I would change is to add a little more cheese to the filling.
