- 1 Air fryer
- 1 Butter knife
- 1 Cutting Board
- 1 Spatula

Ingredients
- 4 slices bread (white, whole wheat, or sourdough)

Notes
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Bread- Place the slices of bread on a cutting board.
- Spread a thin, even layer of softened butter on one side of each bread slice.
- Flip two slices over (buttered side down) and place 2 slices of cheese on the unbuttered side of each.
- Top with the remaining bread slices, buttered side up.
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 2-3 minutes.
- Place the sandwiches in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t overlap. If necessary, cook one sandwich at a time.
- Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 5 minutes.
- Open the air fryer and carefully flip the sandwiches using a spatula.
- Cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
- Remove the sandwiches from the air fryer and let them cool for about 2 minutes.
- Slice in half and serve with your favorite side, such as tomato soup or a simple salad.
Tips and Variations:
- Add extras like ham, turkey, or bacon for a heartier sandwich.
- Experiment with different cheeses for unique flavor combinations.
- Use gluten-free bread for a gluten-free option.
