Ingredients You’ll Need
(Per sandwich)
- 2 slices good-quality bread (sourdough, country white, or whole wheat)
- 2–3 slices cheese (sharp cheddar, American, Gruyère, or a blend)
- 1 tbsp butter, softened (or mayonnaise for extra crispness)
Step-by-Step Instructions (Crispy, Foolproof, Perfect Every Time)
1. Prep the Sandwich
- Butter one side of each bread slice (this becomes the outer crust).
- Place cheese between unbuttered sides. Press gently to seal.
2. Air Fry to Perfection
- Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 2 minutes (optional but recommended).
- Place sandwich in basket—no oil needed.
- Cook 3–5 minutes, until golden brown and cheese is melted.
- Check at 3 mins—cooking time varies by air fryer model and bread thickness.
3. Serve Immediately
- Let rest 1 minute (cheese is molten hot!).
- Slice diagonally—because it tastes better that way
- enjoy
