Instructions

Assemble the Sandwiches

Preheat the air fryer to 360°F (180°C).
Spread butter or mayonnaise evenly on one side of each bread slice.
Place two slices of cheese between two slices of bread, buttered sides facing out.
Sprinkle with garlic powder for extra flavor (optional).

2. Air Fry the Grilled Cheese

Place the sandwiches in the air fryer basket (don’t overcrowd).
Air fry at 360°F for 5 minutes, then flip and cook for another 3–4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

3. Serve & Enjoy

Remove from the air fryer, let cool for 1 minute, then slice and enjoy with tomato soup or your favorite dipping sauce!

Notes

Use parchment paper or an air fryer liner to prevent cheese from sticking.

Add ham, turkey, or bacon for a heartier sandwich.

Swap butter for garlic herb butter for extra flavor!
