For crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside meatballs, turn to the air fryer. It will replicate the crust you get when you pan fry—without any oil. Another bonus: You aren't required to stand near a splattering stove to turn the meatballs every couple of minutes. The air fryer does the work for you and gets all sides perfectly "seared". These are stuffed with mozzarella for an extra-fun surprise and once coated in your favorite marinara can be a meal all on their own. These are anything but your ordinary meatball and we are here for it!
