Air Fried Panko Brie

A tasty and delicious entree for any party, make this with Sunbeam’s DiamondForce 3-in-1 Digital Air Fryer. Featuring an air fry, proof, bake and dehydrate function, this air fryer takes the place of 3 appliances in one compact unit. The air fryer’s 5L capacity means you can confidently cook to feed the whole family and the six pre-set air fryer settings makes air frying food a breeze! Use the proof and bake feature to try your hand at baking, while dehydrate is great for making dried fruit and vegetable chips.

Serves: 8 – 12 (2 wheels)
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

• ¼ cup plain flour
• 1 egg
• ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
• 2 x 200g brie wheels

To Serve:

• Baguette slices

METHOD:

1. Place flour, egg (whisked lightly with a fork) and panko in three medium separate bowls to create a crumbing station.
2. Dip the brie wheels individually into the flour, egg and then panko, then returning to the flour/egg/panko so each brie wheel is crumbed twice in the panko mixture (this makes an extra crunchy thick layer of panko!)
3. Place both crumbed brie wheels into the DiamondForce™ 3-in-1 Digital Air Fryer and cook for 20 minutes at 200°C, or until crisp and golden.
4. Serve the crumbed brie wheels with baguette slices for dipping and enjoy!

Tip – Air fry your baguette slices in a single layer for 3 minutes to make them lovely and crisp!
