Step-by-Step Instructions
- Set up three shallow bowls with flour, beaten eggs mixed with milk, and a mixture of panko breadcrumbs with garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
- Unwrap the Babybel cheese rounds and pat them dry. Let them sit at room temperature for 5 minutes.
- Coat each cheese round in flour, then dip in egg wash, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat for extra crunch.
- Place the breaded cheese rounds on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 10-15 minutes.
- Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 3-5 minutes and spray the basket with olive oil.
- Air fry the cheese rounds for 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway until golden brown.
- Remove from the basket, let cool for 1-2 minutes, and serve hot with dipping sauces.

Notes
For maximum crunch, double coat the cheese with egg wash and panko breadcrumbs. Ensure thin layers and do not overcrowd the air fryer basket when cooking.
