- Makes 4
Ingredients
- 1 bag Protein Crisps (Thai Sweet Chilli)
- 1 egg
- 4 mini Babybels
- 20 g reduced-sugar sweet chilli sauce
Instructions
Pour the Protein Crisps into a bowl and crush into small crumbs (you may find this easier to do while still in the bag, as long as you make sure to open and then fold over the top first).
Next, crack the egg into a separate bowl or jug, and whisk with a fork.
Unwrap each cheese and dunk into egg mix. Make sure to fully coat and then roll in the crisp crumbs until fully covered.
Place in the air fryer for 4 minutes. Your cheese bites should be perfectly crunchy on the outside and nice and gooey on the inside.
Serve with reduced-sugar sweet chilli sauce and enjoy immediately while still fresh and hot (be careful not to burn yourself on the hot cheese centre!)
