Here’s what we need:

  • Soft Bread

  • You also need:
  • An Air Fryer
  • Tin Foil or parchment paper (optional to be used in the air fryer)
  • Silicone brush

Let’s start.

Take two slices of soft bread and put them on a plate side by side. Spread the butter on one side of each slice of bread evenly.

It’s best to melt the butter first before brushing them into the bread with a silicone brush.

Brush from end to end and across the sliced bread.

Then, turn the sliced bread on the other side and spread mayonnaise as evenly as possible.

This will give the sandwich a rich golden finish later after cooking.

Now turn one slice of bread so the one with the butter is facing up.

Use any cheese you prefer.

In the video, American Cheese is used. About 3 slices but you can add as much as you want.

Place the cheese on top of the sliced bread where the butter is spread.

Place the other sliced bread on top of the cheese (butter side down).

The sandwich should have the mayonnaise side on the outside, which makes the surface of the sandwich golden brown and crispy.

And the sides with the butter are sandwiching the cheese in the middle.

This is buttery, cheesy perfection.

Up next, prepare your air fryer.

Preheat the fryer to 370℉.

Place the tin foil or parchment paper into the fryer before putting the sandwich. Be careful this time since you have preheated the fryer.

Use a spatula to help insert the foil or parchment paper.

The foil or paper will prevent any melted cheese from sticking to the fryer so you’ll have less cleaning to worry about.

It’s time to melt the cheese.

Cook the sandwich for four minutes. Then flip it and cook it again for another 2 to 3 minutes.

It should give you a golden brown finish on the surface.

Remove from the air Fryer and you’ve got yourself an easy-to-make, flavorful, and cheesy sandwich.

The melted cheese in the middle is definitely delicious just to look at.
