🍯 Why This Recipe Works

- Easy to make. Building this sandwich is as simple as spreading some mayo and assembling the ingredients in the proper order.

🥘 Ingredients
Ingredient Notes:
Sandwich bread- You can use any sliced sandwich bread you'd prefer. We like to use regular white bread, but you can use whole wheat, low carb, sourdough, etc.
Deli meats- You will want a combination of sliced ham and turkey deli meat for the best flavor.
Sliced cheese- You can use any sliced cheese of your preference. We like Muenster cheese and American.
Tomato- You'll need a ripe roma tomato for this sandwich. Adding sliced tomatoes will give the sandwich more freshness and make it feel juicy as well.

🔪 Instructions for Air Fryer Club Sandwich
Step 1: Spread mayo on one side of both bread slices.
Step 2: Lay the bread, mayo side up in the air fryer. If needed, get a small trivet to place on top of the bread so that it doesn't fly around. Toast at 360F for 3 minutes.
Step 3: Remove the bread from the air fryer and spread mayo on the other side of the bread (the non-toasted sides).
Step 4: Lay the cheese on top of one slice of bread. Lay your meat slices on the other slice of bread.
Step 5: Toast at 360 degrees F for 2 minutes.
Step 6: Remove from the air fryer and add your cold lettuce and tomatoes.
Step 7: Top the tomatoes with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 8: Place the two halves together and enjoy your sandwich.
🍴 Recipe Tips
- Check after a minute. Make sure your bread doesn't fly around in the air fryer basket during toasting. Sometimes, the circulated air can push it up. If this happens, your bread won't toast well. You can fix this by adding 1-3 extra minutes to the cooking time.
- Toasting tip. To keep the bread in place, use a small metal trivet, like the ones used in Instant Pots.
- Another tip. Check that your bread is toasted enough before taking it out because it won't get darker after.
🥗 Side Dishes
You can serve your sandwich with any of your favorite sandwich side dishes like potato chips, fresh fruits, cut vegetables, or pasta salad like Cheddar Bacon Ranch Pasta Salad.
💭 Recipe FAQs
