Sprinkle a generous layer of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the buttered side of each tortilla. The cheese will melt and bubble beautifully, creating that signature pull-apart texture.
Lightly dust each tortilla with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Adjust the amount based on your personal taste — a little extra garlic makes it even more delicious!
Step 3: Stack and Air Fry
Carefully stack the two prepared tortillas on top of each other, cheese sides facing inward. This helps keep the cheese melted between the layers while the outer surfaces crisp to perfection.
Place the stacked tortillas in the air fryer basket. Depending on your air fryer’s size, you may need to slightly fold the edges to fit. Don’t worry — they’ll still crisp up nicely.
Air fry for approximately 5 minutes. Keep a close eye during the last minute — the garlic bread is done when the cheese turns deep golden brown and the edges are lightly crispy.
Step 4: Slice and Serve
Remove the cheesy garlic bread from the air fryer and let it cool for 1–2 minutes. This brief cooling time helps the cheese set, making it easier to slice.
Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the tortilla garlic bread into wedges or strips.
Serve warm and enjoy immediately!
