written by Air Fryer Recipes | August 8, 2026

Ingredients

½ cup dill pickle chips, chopped and squeezed dry
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
⅔ cup cheddar cheese, shredded
½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
¼ cup panko bread crumbs
1 large egg, whisked

Directions

In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped pickles, cream cheese, and cheddar cheese. Mix until well blended.

Roll the mixture into small balls, around 1 inch in diameter.

In a separate bowl, add the Parmesan cheese, and mix with the panko bread crumbs. In another bowl, whisk your eggs with a fork.

Dip each ball into the egg, then roll in the panko and Parmesan mixture to fully coat.

Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees F (190°C). Place the coated pickle balls in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they don’t touch. Set cook time for 8-10 minutes or until golden and crispy, shaking the basket halfway through.
