Yield 1
- 2 slices bread (we used white sandwich bread)
- 1 tablespoon salted butter room temperature
- 1 slice American cheese
- 2 oz. shredded cheddar (~½ cup)
Preheat the air fryer to 370ºF and spray the basket with nonstick cooking spray.
Spread butter evenly onto one side of each slice of bread.
Next, place one slice of bread into the air fryer basket buttered-side down.
Top the slice of bread with American cheese and shredded cheddar and then place the second slice of bread on top of the cheese buttered-side up.
Air fry the sandwich at 370ºF degrees for 4 minutes, flip and air fry for another 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve immediately.
- We used a commercial sandwich bread.
- On the first round of cooking my top slice raised off the sandwich a little. That shape is resolved when you flip and do the second air fry.
- Make sure not to overcrowd your air fryer. As long as your sandwiches aren't overlapping, you can cook more than one at a time.
