INGREDIENT NOTES:
FLOUR TORTILLAS:
- Utilize medium-sized flour tortillas to form the thin and crispy foundation of the garlic bread. They cook easily and quickly in the air fryer and are also strong enough to keep the cheese and garlic bread.
BUTTER:
- We have to use soft unsalted butter and combine it with the seasoning to form the indulgent garlic spread, and it also helps to crisp the tortillas nicely.
GARLIC:
- Utilize fresh garlic to offer the strong savory aroma in the garlic bread. We also use garlic powder in this bread as it will increase the taste in the mixture.
MOZZARELLA CHEESE:
- Utilize the mozzarella cheese to make this garlic bread and shred it fresh so it melts properly in the bread.
PARMESAN CHEESE:
- Add the grated parmesan cheese to provide the nutty and savory flavor, which will help to form the slightly golden and crisp top. It is best to utilize the freshly grated cheese for the best results.
ITALIAN SEASONING:
- Add the Italian seasoning to add the deep Italian flavor profile, which will stabilize the taste of the cheese & garlic nicely.
PARSLEY:
- Use the dried parsley to season the garlic butter; utilize the fresh parsley instead to add the fresh and bright taste.
RED PEPPER FLAKES:
- Add the red pepper flakes to add a soft spicy taste to this garlic bread. It is optional to add the flakes, and you can alter the quantity as you like.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Heat the air fryer to 375°F for around three minutes.
- Add the butter, garlic, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and dried parsley, and mix.
- Apply the garlic butter equally on each tortilla and sprinkle the mozzarella equally on every tortilla.
- Then we add the red pepper flakes and parmesan on top and put them in the basket with care.
- Now air-fry the bread for five to six minutes or till the cheese melts or the corners get crisp.
- Make all of them with the same process and sprinkle the parsley on top.
- Make the slices and serve.
