How to make Grilled Cheese in an Air Fryer
Be sure to see the recipe card below for full ingredients & instructions!
- Butter the bread.
- Place slices of cheese on each piece of bread to make a sandwich.
- Cook in the air fryer, flipping halfway.
What’s the best cheese to use?
I make these with cheddar and Swiss cheese slices. I find that sliced cheese creates a super even filling, but you can use shredded if you prefer. You can make these with other cheeses too, as long as they are quite melty. Jack or mozzarella would work well.
What’s the best bread to use?
For me, run of the mill white sliced bread is perfect for the most comforting grilled cheese, but you can of course make these with whatever you have to hand. Wholewheat or sour dough both work great.
What do you serve it with?
This air fryer grilled cheese sandwich is perfect just by itself for a light lunch, or serve it up with some tomato soup or a fresh side salad. For something a bit more filling and carb heavy, it’s great to serve with some shoestring fries.
Tips!
- Butter the side of the bread that will be on the outside of the sandwich to get it nice and crispy.
- Try swapping the butter for mayonnaise!
- Feel free to add in other fillings to the sandwich like pulled pork, green onions or bacon.
