Ingredients
- 8 lices thick slices of white bread*
- 4 lices sharp cheddar cheese , sliced thinly
- 4-8 lices Choose between: Swiss, provolone, American, Monterey Jack, Gruyere, Fontina or Havarti , or your favorite melty cheese
- butter , for spreading
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 370 degrees.
- Assemble: Butter the outsides of the bread slices and assemble sandwiches with cheese in the center. Use a toothpick to secure the sandwich together (if your bread is thin, the top piece will blow off during cooking).
- Air Fry: Place grilled cheese sandwiches in air fryer basket or oven in an even layer—you will likely need to cook them in batches. Air fry at 370 degrees for 2-3 minutes, flip and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes. Check often to check that it doesn’t burn. During the first minute of cooking, check that the top slice of bread hasn’t blown off of the cheese.
- Total cook time will depend on the type of bread. Check on it periodically and continue cooking until it reaches your desired level of toasted. Remove toothpick before eating.

Notes
- Bread: White sandwich bread is a great traditional choice, but try to choose something thicker cut, like Texas toast or Sara Lee Artesano. Sourdough bread, multi-grain bread or leftover artisan bread would be delicious too, but may not toast as golden in the air fryer, as easily.
- Cheese: Avoid pre-sliced or pre-shredded packaged cheese. Try using two different types of cheese, depth of flavor, like Swiss, provolone, American, Monterey Jack, Gruyere, Fontina or Havarti.
- No Butter: Spray top of bread with oil after placing sandwich in air fryer. Spray the other side after flipping.
- Air Fryer Grilled Ham and Cheese: Add a thin slice of ham in between the two slices of cheese.
- Air Fryer Grilled Cheese with Mayo: Spread on a light layer of mayo on the insides of the bread.
- Pimento Cheese Grilled Cheese: Spread a light layer of pimento cheese on the insides of the bread.
