  1. 01Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper.
  2. 02Place tablespoon-sized mounds of shredded cheese on the parchment, spaced 2 inches apart. They spread.
  3. 03Flatten each mound slightly.
  4. 04Ready for the air fryer.
  5. 05Let cool completely on the parchment. They're floppy when hot and crispy when cool.
Sharp cheddar, not mild. Mild cheddar has more moisture and makes greasy, floppy crisps. Sharp cheddar has less moisture, more flavor, and crisps into lacy, crunchy wafers. The parchment is non-negotiable. Cheese directly on the basket welds itself on permanently.
