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)

Instructions

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