Air Fryer Doritos-Crusted Fried Cheese Recipe

This air fryer Doritos-crusted fried cheese recipe by sweetporfolio on Instagram is a quick and easy snack recipe to make at home. I love these small reels or TikTok videos that people have been making during the quarantine. It’s interesting to see how creative people get with recipes that do not require much effort. It’s crazy how this only takes 4 ingredients to make, and they’re all inexpensive products. I love how convenient this recipe is for those that want a snack, but do not want to spend too much time in the kitchen. It takes less than 10 minutes to make and the video is only 30 seconds. I love cheese, and they remind me of mozzarella sticks. I’m so impressed how cheesy it came out at the end of the video, and the red-orange color from the Doritos makes it appetizing.

Ingredients:

• Babybel or Dutch cheese⁣
• Doritos⁣
• 1 egg⁣
• 3 tbsp flour ⁣

Directions:

First, crush about a cup of Doritos by putting it into a plastic bag, and smashing it with your fist or a food roller. Also, you can use a food processor to crush them into small pieces. Then, make an assembly line with a bowl of crushed Doritos, flour, and beaten egg. Roll the cheese in the flour, soak it in the egg mixture, and then cover it with crushed Doritos. Repeat this for the second time.

Next, add the Doritos-crushed cheese into the air fryer and cook at 400F for 3 minutes or bake in the oven at 400F for 5 minutes.

I love this recipe, and I can’t wait to try and make it myself. I know TikTok has many recipes like these that are easy and fast to make. I feel like I would have to make a couple of these because they are small. However, these would make great appetizer snacks too at a gathering.
