How to Make Stuffed Mozzarella Bacon Bombs
1. Wrap the Mozzarella
- Take each mozzarella ball and wrap it tightly with a slice of bacon. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
2. Coat the Bombs
- Roll each bacon-wrapped mozzarella ball in flour, ensuring a light, even coating.
- Dip it into the beaten egg, then roll it in breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, smoked paprika, and Italian seasoning.
- Repeat the process for an extra crispy coating (optional but recommended).
3. Fry or Air Fry
Frying Method:
- Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the bacon bombs for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
Air Fryer Method:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Place the bacon bombs in the basket, making sure they don’t touch.
- Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway, until the bacon is crispy and cheese starts to melt.
