Instructions (expanded)
slice mozzarella into small, thin sticks no heavier than one ounce each. set aside and prepare breading station
to set up breading: mix flour and bread seasoning in one bowl for dredge, in another bowl pour in pint of buttermilk and whisk in about half a cup of the dredge to thicken, and for the final station use a food processor attachment on a hand blender to pulverize all your Doritos into small crumbs.
Dredge, wash, and coat cheese sticks in crushed Doritos and set aside on a parchment paper lined sheet tray. Place in freezer for at least overnight but preferably 24 hours.
Air fry cheese sticks at 350 degrees F for no more than 10 minutes, optionally turning in the middle of cooking. It helps to do these in smaller batches.
Think about what you've done in search of new flavors.
