Air Fryer Hearts of Palm Sticks
I'd never seen a recipe for air fryer hearts of palm sticks but I'd seen artichoke hearts and mozzarella sticks fried in the air fryer, so I thought...why not? What a pleasant surprise! They take on the look of mozzarella sticks but have a tangy, meaty texture in the center. I serve them with marinara sauce for dipping, and ranch salad dressing would also be great.
