air fryer

Ingredients

2 slices sandwich bread white, whole wheat, etc.
2 tablespoon butter
3 slices American cheese or cheddar cheese

Instructions

Set the air fryer to preheat to 380℉ (if your air fryer requires preheating).
Evenly spread 1 tablespoon of butter on 1 side of each bread slice. On the non-buttered side of 1 slice, lay the American cheese slices. Top with the remaining slice of bread, buttered side up.
Put sandwich into the air fryer. Air fry for 5-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until cheese is melted and both sides of the sandwich are golden brown and crisp.
Remove from the air fryer basket using a spatula. Let cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Notes

Storing: Wrap leftovers in foil or plastic wrap and store in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Reheating: Reheat in the air fryer for 3-5 minutes at 260 degrees Fahrenheit for the sandwich to regain crispiness.
