Ingredients
- 8 lices bread rye or pumpernickel
- 4 lices swiss cheese
- 1 pound corned beef sliced
- 8 tablespoons sauerkraut well-drained
- ½ cup Russian dressing or Thousand Island dressing
- oil or melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 390 degrees F or 200 degrees C and spread the Russian dressing on four slices of bread.
- Assemble the sandwiches by dividing the corned beef slices evenly among the 4 pieces of bread, then top each with sauerkraut and a slice of cheese. Close the sandwiches with the 4 remaining slices of bread. If needed, use a toothpick to hold the sandwiches togther.
- Place the sandwiches in the air fryer basket, and spray or brush the tops with oil or melted butter.
- Cook for 3 – 4 minutes, then open the air fryer, carefully flip the sandwiches over, and add butter to the tops.
- Cook for another 3-4 minutes, until crispy golden brown.

Notes
- Use a substantial bread that will hold up to this meaty sandwich.
- Ensure the sauerkraut or pickled cabbage is well-drained so you don’t end up with a soggy sandwich.
- Slice the corned beef to your preference. I prefer thick slices, but you can shred the beef.
- You can butter the bread before assembling the sandwich.
- Omit the sauerkraut if you prefer.
- Can’t find corned beef? Use pastrami instead.
- Use a toothpick to hold the sandwich together while it cooks. Remove the toothpick before serving.
- Don't crowd the air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook in batches.
