4 tbsp softened butter (or mayonnaise)
Optional: pinch of garlic powder or a little shredded cheese for extra melt
👩🍳 Instructions

Spread butter (or mayo) on one side of each slice of bread.
Assemble Sandwiches
Place 4 slices bread butter-side down.
Add 2 slices cheese to each.
Top with remaining bread slices, butter-side up.
Air Fry
Line basket with parchment paper (optional).
Place sandwiches in a single layer.

🔥 Tips for Extra Crispy Sandwiches
Use a mix of cheddar + mozzarella for best melt.
Press gently with a spatula before flipping.
Add thin slices of ham or cooked chicken for variation.
If cheese isn’t fully melted, cook 1–2 extra minutes.
