I need to weight down the sandwich with a metal teaspoon or something top stop my sandwich from blowing apart in the air fryer due to the strong fanning.
A couple of toothpicks put through the sandwich , a bit on the slant, holds the two pieces of bread together
Doesn’t the cheese go all over the inside of the air fryer and get burnt on?
Totally not recommended! It will leave a big mess of melted cheese in your fryer!
do you butter both the top and bottom slices if bread ?
My favourite Toastie is a Bacon, Brie and cranberry one. So I assume I need to fry the bacon before putting it in the bread?
