Notes
- For an extra gooey sandwich, add more cheese. Use at least two slices per sandwich, and feel free to mix different types of cheese. A combo of cheddar and mozzarella is a family favorite in my house.
- Air fryers can vary, so keep an eye on your sandwiches during cooking. If you notice the bread browning too quickly, you can lower the temperature slightly.
- Add some thinly sliced tomatoes, crispy bacon, or even a smear of pesto inside the sandwich for extra flavor.
