Creating Air Fryer Cheesy Mashed Potato Balls is simple and fun. Follow these easy steps to make your own:

1. Prep the Mashed Potatoes: If you haven’t already, prepare your mashed potatoes. They should be creamy and not too runny.
2. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, shredded cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined.
3. Form Balls: Using your hands, take a spoonful of the potato mixture and roll it into a ball about the size of a golf ball. Repeat until the mixture is used up.
4. Coat the Balls: Dredge each ball in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and then coat in breadcrumbs. Make sure to cover them completely for a nice crisp finish.
5. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes to preheat.
6. Air Fry the Balls: Spray the air fryer basket with oil. Place the potato balls in a single layer, ensuring they don’t touch. Spray the tops lightly with oil.
7. Cook: Air fry for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remember to flip them halfway through cooking for even browning.
8. Cool and Serve: Once cooked, let the balls cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them hold their shape better.

With these steps, you’ll have a batch of incredibly tasty Air Fryer Cheesy Mashed Potato Balls ready to enjoy!
