Bread the Cheese Sticks
Take one mozzarella stick and first coat it in the flour mixture, shaking off the excess. Next, dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, roll the stick in the breadcrumb mixture, making sure it is fully coated. Repeat this process for all mozzarella sticks.
