Description

This Air Fryer Grilled Cheese delivers all the gooey, crispy goodness of a traditional grilled cheese sandwich with less mess and a faster cook time. Perfectly melted cheese inside golden toasted bread, all thanks to the air fryer.


Ingredients

  • 2 slices of bread (white, sourdough, or your choice)
  • 2 slices of cheese (cheddar, American, or any melty variety)
  • 1 tablespoon butter or mayonnaise (for spreading)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes.
  2. Spread butter or mayonnaise on one side of each bread slice.
  3. Place cheese between the unbuttered sides of the bread to form a sandwich.
  4. Place the sandwich in the air fryer basket, buttered side out.
  5. Cook for 4–5 minutes, flip, then cook an additional 3–4 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Remove and let sit for 1–2 minutes before slicing and serving.
