Cheddar Bacon Croquettes

Cheddar Bacon Croquettes

  1. Cut the cheddar block into 6 equally sized portions, approximately 3cm×3,5cm each. Take two pieces of bacon and wrap them around each piece of cheddar, fully enclosing the cheese. Trim any excess fat. Place the cheddar bacon bites in the freezer for 5 minutes to firm. Do not freeze.
  2. Preheat the airfryer to 200 degrees. Mix the oil and breadcrumbs and stir until the mixture becomes loose and crumbly. Place each cheddar block into flour, then the eggs and then the breadcrumbs. Press coating to croquettes to ensure it adheres. Place the croquettes in the cooking basket and cook for 7-8 minutes or until golden brown.
