If you're looking for a delightful twist on a classic favourite, these Air Fryer Mac & Cheese Balls are the perfect solution. Imagine creamy, cheesy macaroni encased in a crispy golden exterior – a mouth-watering treat that’s easy to prepare and even easier to enjoy!
To start, cook your macaroni pasta according to the package instructions, then combine it with a rich cheese sauce made from a blend of your favourite cheeses, such as cheddar and mozzarella. Once the mixture has cooled, shape it into small balls and coat them in seasoned breadcrumbs for that irresistible crunch.
Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (about 390°F), and arrange the mac & cheese balls in a single layer in the basket. Cook for approximately 8-10 minutes, or until they reach a perfect golden colour and are perfectly crisp on the outside. Serve hot with a side of marinara sauce for dipping, and watch as these delectable bites disappear in no time! Enjoy your homemade Air Fryer Mac & Cheese Balls as a snack, appetiser, or even a cheeky side dish at dinner – they’re guaranteed to be a hit with the whole family.
