Ingredients

• 8 slices thick white bread*
• 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese, thinly sliced
• 4–8 slices of your favorite melty cheese (Swiss, provolone, American, Monterey Jack, Gruyere, Fontina, or Havarti)
• 4 thin slices deli turkey (oven-roasted or honey turkey works best)
• Butter, for spreading

Instructions

1. Preheat the air fryer to 370°F (190°C).
2. Assemble the sandwiches:
   • Butter one side of each bread slice.
   • On the unbuttered side, layer cheese, a thin slice of turkey, then another layer of cheese.
   • Top with another slice of bread, buttered side facing out.
   • Secure with a toothpick if needed.
3. Air fry:
   • Place sandwiches in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
   • Cook at 370°F for 2–3 minutes, flip carefully, then cook another 2–3 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
4. Serve:
   • Remove toothpicks and serve warm.

Tips & Variations

• Cheese combo tip: Sharp cheddar + Swiss or provolone pairs especially well with turkey.
• No-butter option: Lightly spray the bread with cooking oil instead.
• With mayo: Spread a thin layer of mayo on the inside of the bread for extra richness.
• Extra melty: Keep the turkey very thin so the cheese stays the star.
