    • In a medium bowl combine the stuffing parmesan cheese and whisked egg and mix.
    • Scoop stuffing, about 2 tablespoons per serving, and roll into a ball using your hands. Place on a baking sheet and set aside. (if stuffing is to dry to hold together add a splash of milk to moisten)
    • Place flour in a bowl, and whisked eggs in a second bowl, then the panko, paprika, granulated garlic, and salt in a third bowl.
    • Dredge each stuffing ball in the flour and shake off any excess. The place in the eggs and shake off any excess finally roll in the panko bread crumbs until coated. And return back to the baking sheet.

      I have not done it in the air fryer, but my daughter did at 350 for about 15 minutes flipping halfway through.

      Do you have air fryer time/temperature, by any chance?
