Line a small baking sheet or plate with waxed or parchment paper. Place flour in a shallow dish and beaten egg in a second shallow dish. Stir together breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese in a third shallow dish.
Coat cheese sticks with flour, dip in egg and then coat well with breadcrumb mixture. If there is any visible cheese, dip back into egg and breadcrumbs to ensure they are completely coated. Place on tray. Freeze until solid, at least 30 minutes.
Heat air fryer to 400°F. Spray frozen mozzarella sticks with olive oil spray. Turn and spray second side with olive oil spray. Place in air fryer basket in single layer. Air fry 6 to 8 minutes, until golden brown, turning once. Serve with warm pasta sauce for dipping.
