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.
Step 2: Preheat the Air Fryer
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 2-3 minutes.
Step 3: Cook the Sandwiches
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.
Step 4: Cool and Serve
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.
