Drain the mozzarella balls and pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

Place the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs in separate shallow dishes. Season the breadcrumbs with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.

Roll each mozzarella ball in the flour, shaking off the excess.

Dip it into the beaten eggs, ensuring it’s fully coated.

Finally, roll it in the breadcrumbs until well-coated.

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.

Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray.

Place the coated mozzarella balls in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches). Spray the tops lightly with more olive oil.

Air fry for 6-8 minutes, until golden and crispy, keeping an eye on them to prevent burning.

Let them cool slightly before serving with your favorite dipping sauce.
