Here’s a simple and delicious way to make a grilled cheese sandwich in an air fryer:
Ingredients
- 2 slices of bread (your choice)
- 2 slices of cheese (cheddar, American, or your favorite)
- 1–2 tsp butter or margarine
Instructions
- Prep the bread: Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread. The buttered side will face outward for a golden crisp.
- Assemble the sandwich: Place the cheese between the unbuttered sides of the bread slices.
- Preheat air fryer (optional): Set it to 370°F (188°C) for 3 minutes.
- Cook: Place the sandwich in the air fryer basket. Cook at 370°F (188°C) for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.
- Check & serve: When the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, remove carefully and let it cool for 1–2 minutes. Slice and enjoy!
💡 Tips:
- Add extras like tomato slices, cooked bacon, or avocado for a twist.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket—air needs space to crisp the bread evenly.
- For extra crispiness, lightly spray the basket with cooking spray.
