#### **How to Make Air Fryer Pull-Apart Cheese Garlic Bread**
1. **Prepare the Bread:**
– Start by cutting the loaf of bread into slices without cutting all the way through—leave the base intact so the loaf holds together. Slice vertically, then horizontally, creating a crosshatch pattern. This will allow the garlic butter and cheese to seep between the slices.
2. **Prepare the Garlic Butter Mixture:**
– In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning (if using), and a pinch of salt. Stir until the garlic is well-mixed into the butter.
3. **Stuff the Bread:**
– Carefully spoon or drizzle the garlic butter mixture into the cracks of the bread, making sure to coat each slice evenly. Use a pastry brush if needed to get the butter into the spaces.
4. **Add the Cheese:**
– Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese between the slices. Make sure to cover each section generously for a gooey, cheesy pull-apart effect. You can add extra cheese on top for a more decadent treat!
5. **Air Fry the Bread:**
– Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
– Place the stuffed bread in the air fryer basket. If your loaf is too large, you can cut it in half to fit better.
– Air fry the bread for about 8-10 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. If you like your cheese extra crispy, you can air fry for a few more minutes.
