Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices bread such as Italian, sourdough or white sandwich bread
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter at room temperature
  • 1 cup shredded cheese like Cheddar, American, Swiss or Muenster

Method
 

  1. Butter one side of each of the 4 slices of bread.
  2. Divide the cheese into two equal portions. Sprinkle it evenly on the unbuttered side of two slices of bread.
  3. Sandwich the bread together than place in your air fryer. Secure with a toothpick (optional). Cook at 375°F for 5 minutes, then flip. Continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
  4. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Your specific cook time will depend on the type of bread you use and your specific air fryer. Keep a close eye on the sandwiches the first time you make them to avoid overcooking.
