Ingredients

8 ounces goat cheese, softened
1/2 cup breadcrumbs, I used regular
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg, beaten
olive oil spray

Optional for garnish:
honey
fresh chopped herbs such as parsley or thyme

Directions

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F.

Form the softened goat cheese into small balls about 1 inch in diameter.

You are going to set up a dredging station with three bowls. One bowl with flour, the second bowl with the beaten egg, and breadcrumbs in the third bowl.

Roll each goat cheese ball in the flour, then dip it into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat the ball in breadcrumbs.

Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil.

Place the goat cheese balls in the basket in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch each other.

Lightly spray the tops of the goat cheese balls with olive oil.

Air fry for 8-10 minutes or until the goat cheese balls are golden brown and crispy outside.

Remove the goat cheese balls from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Serve them warm with a dipping sauce like honey, balsamic glaze, or marinara sauce.
