Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices sandwich bread
- 4 slices cheese (e.g., 2 cheddar and 2 Havarti)
- 3 tbsp butter (or mayonnaise)
Instructions
- Prepare the Bread:
- Spread butter or mayonnaise evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
- Assemble the Sandwiches:
- Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in the air fryer basket.
- Add 2 slices of cheese on top of the bread. Place another slice of bread on top, buttered side up. Repeat for the second sandwich.
- Cook in the Air Fryer:
- Preheat the air fryer to 370°F (190°C).
- Cook the sandwiches for 4 minutes, then flip them over and cook for another 4 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Serve:
- Remove the grilled cheese sandwiches from the air fryer, slice in half, and serve warm. Enjoy with tomato soup or your favorite dipping sauce!
Notes
- Cheese Options: Experiment with different cheeses like mozzarella, pepper jack, or Gruyère for unique flavors.
- Bread Choices: Use sourdough, rye, or whole wheat bread for variety.
- Crispier Texture: Lightly spray the bread with cooking spray before air frying.
- Batch Cooking: Work in batches if your air fryer basket can’t fit both sandwiches at once.
