Ingredients:
- 2 slices of bread
- 2 slices of cheese (cheddar, American, Swiss, or your choice)
- Butter or margarine (for spreading)
- Optional additions: thinly sliced tomatoes, cooked bacon, caramelized onions, or sliced jalapeños
Instructions:
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
- Butter the Bread: Spread a thin layer of butter or margarine on one side of each slice of bread. This will be the outer side of the sandwich that gets crispy.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Place one slice of cheese between the two slices of bread, with the buttered sides facing out. If you’re adding any extras like tomatoes or bacon, place them between the cheese slices.
- Cook in the Air Fryer: Place your assembled sandwich into the air fryer basket. Make sure it’s in a single layer and not overlapping with other items.
- Air Fry: Cook the sandwich at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes. Check on it after a few minutes to make sure it’s cooking to your desired level of crispiness. You can flip the sandwich halfway through the cooking time for even browning if you’d like.
- Serve: Once the grilled cheese sandwich is golden brown and the cheese is melted, carefully remove it from the air fryer using tongs or a spatula.
- Cool and Enjoy: Let it cool for a minute to avoid burning your mouth, and then enjoy your air fryer grilled cheese sandwich while it’s warm and gooey…
Note: Air fryer models vary, so cooking times may differ. Keep an eye on the sandwich to prevent overcooking or burning..
