Air Fryer Grilled Cheese (Printer-Friendly)

Crisp golden bread pairs with gooey cheese for a quick and tasty air fryer sandwich everyone will love.

# What You'll Need:

→ Main

01 - 4 slices white bread or artisan bread
02 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
03 - 6 slices American cheese

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Preheat the air fryer to 175°C for 5 minutes to ensure even toasting.
02 - Spread one-quarter of the butter onto one side of a slice of bread. Place the slice butter side down into the air fryer basket.
03 - Arrange 3 slices of American cheese evenly on top of the bread in the basket.
04 - Butter another slice of bread with one-quarter of the remaining butter. Close the sandwich by placing this slice, buttered side up, on top of the cheese.
05 - Close the air fryer and cook at 175°C for 4-5 minutes until the bread is lightly golden.
06 - Carefully flip the sandwich using tongs and air fry for an additional 2-3 minutes, cooking to your preferred toastiness.
07 - Repeat the process with the remaining bread, cheese, and butter to make the second sandwich. Serve immediately for optimal crispness and melt.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Use a toothpick to anchor the sandwich halves in the air fryer if using lightweight bread to prevent shifting during cooking.
02 - Enjoy with tomato soup or serve alongside a fresh salad for a balanced meal.
