Steps
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Place flour in a shallow bowl, beaten eggs in another, and combine Panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, paprika (if using), salt, and pepper in a third bowl.
Coat each mozzarella stick in flour, dip in the beaten eggs, then roll in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure an even coating.
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray and place the breaded mozzarella sticks in the basket, ensuring they do not touch to allow even crisping.
Air fry the mozzarella sticks for 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on the outside. Flip halfway through for even crispness.
Remove from the air fryer and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
