Mayonnaise, not butter
The first trick is to avoid butter and use mayonnaise instead. Mayo has a higher smoking point meaning it will allow things to brown better and the cheese to melt more.

You can use any bread
These don't have to be all white bread, they are just as good with a nice marble rye (as shown here).

Place them in the Air Fryer
Place your prepared bread in the air fryer, with marble cheese slices on it.
3
Add the top piece
Add the top piece of bread, mayo side up and get ready to start cooking.

Cook until finished
Cook in the air fryer (use instructions in our recipe card) until nice and golden brown (like shown).
