Method
- 1
Freeze goat cheese rounds for 15 minutes so they hold their shape.
- 2
Mix panko with herbs de Provence. Set up breading: flour, egg, herbed panko.
- 3
Dredge each round in flour, then egg, then panko. Press coating gently.
- 4
Spray with cooking spray.
- 5
Air fry at 400°F for 5-7 minutes until golden. Serve on mixed greens with honey, balsamic, walnuts, and fruit.
Pro tip. Cold goat cheese is easier to bread and holds its shape during cooking. It should be warm and creamy inside but not fully melted. These go from perfect to flat puddles quickly, so watch them. The honey drizzle on top is non-negotiable.
Why the air fryer wins here
- Ready in 8 minutes. The same dish takes about 13 in a conventional oven, plus preheating.
- Uses a fraction of the oil of deep frying, which is how this comes in at 220 calories a serving.
- Cleanup is a basket, not a sheet pan and a splattered stovetop.
Storing and reheating
Refrigerate perishable leftovers within 2 hours, or within 1 hour above 90°F. Reheat leftovers to 165°F (74°C) throughout, measured with a food thermometer. USDA leftover safety guidance.
Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-5 minutes rather than the microwave so the outside crisps back up. See the reheat guide for exact times by food.
