AIR FRYER ESSENTIALS: TOMATO SOUP GRILLED CHEESE
We all know that tomato soup is a great addition to a grilled cheese. So, instead of making tomato soup, I am putting it in the sandwich. Okay, this is not exactly a "tomato soup" grilled cheese. It is a grilled cheese with yummy tomato jam. This is very popular in Great Britain, usually grilled up using buttered plain bread, cheddar cheese, and tomato jam. Full Stop. I kicked it up a bit with fire roasted tomato jam, rye/pumpernickel bread, bacon, and two cheeses. Then, we will pop it into the air fryer for a perfect toasting. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

Steps:
- PREP/PREPARE
- You do not have to do this sandwich in an air fryer; just fry it up in a skillet or pop it into the oven. I was just curious about trying a different method. I am not suggesting that the air fryer is any better or worse than pan or oven cooking; however, it is much easier than using a pan and, it uses less energy than heating up a whole oven. In addition, it tastes great using way less fat (butter).
- Time Versus Temperature Cook it at too high a temperature, and the bread will burn before the cheese melts; too low, and you will not get that yummy gooey, melted cheese with perfectly toasted bread. I did three experiments, and this is what gave me the perfect air fryer grilled cheese. A temp of 350f (175c) for 6 minutes. Flip the grilled cheese, raise the temp to 375f (190c) for an additional 4 minutes. You wind up with a perfectly toasted grilled cheese, with scrummy melted cheese. FYI: Not all air fryers are created equal. Mine happens to be a Philips Digital with 1425W of power. My suggestion would be to take a simple grilled cheese, cut it in half, put half in the air fryer, and try my method. Then, adjust the times, if needed, to suit your particular model.
- Tomato Jam You can purchase tomato jam at your local grocer; however, it is simple, and cheaper, just to make your own. This the recipe that I used: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/spread/spread-essentials-sweet-savory-tomato-jam.html?r=4
- When I cook the bacon, I like it a bit crispy. That gives a bit of crunch (mouth feel), to the sandwich.
- Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
- Preheat your air fryer to 350f (175c).
- Grate the cheeses, and mix them together.
- Brush the butter on one side of each slice of bread.
- Since we are using an air fryer, you do not need much butter; just a thin, thin coating. That is the great thing about an air fryer, you can cook with way less fat.
- Turn the bread over and add some tomato jam to both unbuttered sides.
- Add half the cheese...
- Then the bacon...
- Then the remaining cheese.
- Cover with the remaining slice of bread, jam side down, and add to the basket of your air fryer.
- Cook using the method in Step 3 (adjust times, if needed).
- Let rest 1 - 2 minutes before serving.
- PLATE/PRESENT
- Serve while nice and warm, with a side of whatever you choose. Enjoy.
- Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
AIR-FRYER GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICHES
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

AIR FRYER GRILLED CHEESE
I found that it is easier to get an extra crispy and crunchy grilled cheese sandwich if I use my air fryer. It's also quicker than grilling it in my cast iron skillet.
