Step 1

Divide goat cheese into 8 pieces, and roll them into balls. Place on a plate or tray and stick in the freezer for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Preheat air fryer at 400° for 4 minutes.

Step 3

Place the flour, whisked egg, and panko in 3 separate bowls. Add rosemary, salt, and red pepper flakes to the panko crumbs.

Step 4

First lightly coat the balls in flour, dusting off any excess. Coat with the egg wash, then cover in panko crumbs.

Step 5

Once the fryer is preheated, spray the basket with cooking spray (I use avocado oil in a Misto sprayer)

Step 6

Place the panko-crusted goat cheese in the fryer basket and cook at 400° for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.

Step 7

The cheese will be super melty when they first come out, making them hard to remove from the basket. Set the basket on a kitchen towel and let the fritters cool down a bit before removing them gently with a fork.
