Yes, breading works well in an air fryer! In fact, air fryers are particularly good at cooking breaded foods, giving them a crispy, golden exterior similar to what you'd expect from traditional deep frying, but with much less oil. You can use traditional breadcrumbs, panko for extra crispiness, or even crushed up cereals or chips for a different texture. Lightly spray the breaded food with some oil spray before air frying. This helps achieve a more golden and crispy result.
