Air Fryer Cheesy Tortilla Garlic Bread is a quick and crispy twist on classic garlic bread, made using flour tortillas instead of traditional bread. Brushed with a flavorful garlic butter and topped with melty cheese, these golden rounds cook up in minutes with the perfect crunch on the outside and gooey center. Ideal as a snack, side dish, or party appetizer, they’re a fast and delicious way to curb any cheesy garlic bread craving without turning on the oven.
4 flour tortillas
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 garlic cloves, minced
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon chopped parsley or dried Italian herbs
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt to taste
1 In a small bowl, mix together melted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, herbs, and a pinch of salt to create a garlic butter spread.
2 Place the tortillas on a flat surface and brush one side of each tortilla generously with the garlic butter mixture.
3 Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese evenly over half of each tortilla, then fold the tortillas in half to form a semicircle.
4 Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 2 to 3 minutes.
5 Place the folded tortillas in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding.
6 Air fry for 5 to 7 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on both sides and the cheese is fully melted.
7 Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly before slicing into wedges and serving.
For a spicier version, sprinkle crushed red pepper flakes or chopped jalapeños inside before folding. Use different cheeses like cheddar or pepper jack for flavor variations. This recipe works best with medium or large tortillas to ensure enough space for cheese and folding. Serve with marinara, ranch, or garlic aioli for dipping. These are best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be reheated in the air fryer to bring back their crisp texture.
