Air-Fryer Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 370°F (190°C) for 2–3 minutes.
  2. Spread butter or mayonnaise evenly on one side of each bread slice.
  3. Assemble: Place cheese between two slices of bread, buttered sides facing out.
  4. Air fry for 4–5 minutes, then carefully flip.
  5. Cook another 3–5 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
  6. Remove, rest for 1 minute, slice, and serve warm.

Optional Additions

  • Tomato slices (pat dry)
  • Caramelized onions
  • Turkey or crispy beef bacon
  • A sprinkle of shredded cheese on the outside for extra crispiness

Tips for Success

  • Secure sandwiches with toothpicks if your air fryer has strong airflow.
  • Thicker bread may need an extra minute per side.
  • Mixing cheeses (cheddar + mozzarella) gives better melt and flavor.
