I grew up eating grilled cheese sandwiches made with Velveeta®, and I still think it's absolutely the best for this sandwich. It's flavorful, and melts beautifully. If you happen to have brioche bread on hand, use it because it makes this sandwich taste divine!

Using the air fryer is a genius way to make these golden, toasty sandwiches. I think this method gets the cheese the gooiest. If I'm making only one air-fryer grilled cheese, I'll also pop in a few fries with the sandwich. -Edie DeSpain, Logan, Utah

Tips:

  • Choose a sturdy bread that can hold up to the heat of the air fryer, such as sourdough, French bread, or ciabatta.
  • Use a generous amount of butter or cooking spray to prevent the bread from sticking to the air fryer basket.
  • Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. Leave some space between the sandwiches so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the sandwiches in a single layer. If you have to cook multiple sandwiches, do it in batches.
  • Keep an eye on the sandwiches while they're cooking. They can burn quickly, so it's important to remove them from the air fryer as soon as they're golden brown.
  • Serve the sandwiches immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
