How to Make the Recipe
Let’s walk through the steps to make this delicious Air Fryer Tortilla Garlic Bread:
- Lay out your tortillas on a clean surface. Using a spoon or a butter knife, spread a generous amount of the softened butter evenly over the surface of each tortilla. Make sure to coat all the way to the edges for maximum flavor.
- Then add the grated mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to the buttered tortillas. Place one tortilla on top of the other to create a double layer of flavor.
- Preheat your air fryer to around 375°F. Once preheated, place the tortilla stack in the air fryer basket and air fry for about 4-6 minutes. Keep a close eye on them as air fryer cooking times can vary. You’re looking for the tortillas to turn golden brown and crispy. If you’re making multiple batches, ensure they’re in a single layer without overlapping.
- Once the tortilla garlic bread is crispy and golden, carefully remove it from the air fryer. If desired, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top for a burst of color and added freshness.
- Serve the air fryer tortilla garlic bread immediately while it’s still warm and crispy. It’s perfect as a side to pasta, soups, salads, or even as a standalone snack. You can also pair it with marinara sauce, salsa, or your favorite dipping sauce for an extra kick.
Pro Tips for Making the Recipe
Here are a few tips to take your Air Fryer Tortilla Garlic Bread to the next level:
- For an extra crispy texture, make sure the tortillas are dry before adding the butter and cheese. You can even lightly toast them in a dry pan for a few seconds before assembling.
- Don’t overload the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary to ensure even cooking.
- Experiment with different cheeses like cheddar or parmesan for a unique flavor profile.
- Add some heat by sprinkling a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy twist.
How to Serve
This Air Fryer Tortilla Garlic Bread is incredibly versatile. Here are a few ways to enjoy it:
- As a side to your favorite easy pasta recipes or creamy garlic pasta dishes.
- Paired with a fresh green salad for a quick and satisfying meal.

Make Ahead and Storage
While this recipe is best served fresh, you can make it ahead and store it for later:
- Prepare the tortillas with butter and cheese, but don’t cook them. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
- Once cooked, allow the garlic bread to cool completely, then store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer for a few minutes to restore crispiness.
