1.Preheat the Air Fryer:3 min.
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Starting with a hot basket sears the buttered exterior immediately, preventing the bread from drying out before the cheese melts.
2.Butter and Assemble:2 min.
Spread 1 tablespoon of softened butter (or mayonnaise) evenly over one side of each bread slice, ensuring edge-to-edge coverage. Place cheese slices between the unbuttered sides of the bread.
3.First Convection Crisp:5 min.
Place the assembled sandwich in the center of the preheated air fryer basket. Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 5 minutes. (Tip: If your air fryer fan is high-velocity, secure the top slice of bread with a wooden toothpick to prevent it from shifting).
4.Flip and Finish Toasting:3-4 min.
Carefully flip the sandwich over using a spatula. Cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until both sides are deep golden-brown and the cheese is fully melted and bubbling.
5.Rest, Slice, and Serve:1 min.
Remove sandwich and let rest on a cutting board for 1 minute to allow the cheese matrix to stabilize. Slice diagonally with a serrated knife and serve hot.
