  • Cube the halloumi pieces into small bite size pieces.
  • Prepare two bowls. In the first one prepare the beaten eggs. In the second bowl, mix the breadcrumbs together with the spices and herbs.
  • Drench each piece of cubed halloumi in the eggs and transfer to the breadcrumbs, making sure that all sides of the cheese is covered.
  • Place the breaded cheese in the basket and cook in the air fryer at 180°C/350°F for about 10 minutes, turning them half way through the cooking process. Bake until they have a nice golden colour.
  • Once done plate and season with some flakey salt.
  • Serve with hot honey or any other sauce of your choice!

Notes

Make sure to turn bites halfway in the air fryer for an evenly crispy finish. Don’t overcrowd the basket for best results. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container and reheated in air fryer. Can be frozen after flash freezing.
