Air Fryer Cheese Bread Recipe
This air fryer cheese bread recipe is a quick and easy appetizer made with sandwich bread, garlic butter, and melted cheese. Crispy on the outside and warm and cheesy on the inside, it’s perfect for any occasion!
Ingredients
- 4 slices sandwich bread
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese
- 3 tbsp butter softened
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp dried basil
- 1/8 tsp dried thyme
- 1/8 tsp dried parsley
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Shred your mozzarella cheese. Mince 2 cloves of garlic.
- Mix the softened butter, olive oil, minced garlic, and dried herbs in a small bowl.
- Take 4 slices of regular bread and spread with about 1 tbsp of the garlic butter each, then top with about 1/4 cup shredded cheese each.
- Place bread in the air fryer (depending on the size of your bread and air fryer, you may need to work in batches).
- Cook at 375 for 6-9 minutes*, until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- If working in batches, you can put the finished bread in an oven-safe dish, cover with foil, and put it in a low oven (200 degrees) to keep it warm.
- Serve and enjoy!

Notes
- *The time the garlic bread needs really depends on the air fryer. When I did these in a 2 qt air fryer 1 piece at a time, they got done in only 6 minutes. However, when they were spread out in a larger air fryer, they didn’t brown as evenly and needed more like 8-9 minutes. Just use the color of the cheese as a gauge of doneness!
- You can sub french bread or even dinner rolls cut in half, with the same ratio of other ingredients!
- Make sure to preheat your air fryer as its particular directions state. And don’t overcrowd your air fryer—cook as many pieces of toast as will fit comfortably!
- Spice up this bread: add red pepper flakes, bacon, tomatoes, or serve with a tipping sauce like marinara or ranch!
