Directions:

  1. Spread a tablespoon of softened butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread, this will be the outside of your prosciutto sandwich.

  2. On the unbuttered side of one slice, layer the prosciutto evenly. Add the mozzarella slices on top, then close the sandwich with the second slice, buttered side facing out.

  3. Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (190°C). Place the sandwich inside and cook for 6 to 8 minutes. Flip it halfway through to get both sides golden and crispy, and the cheese melted perfectly.

  4. Let your prosciutto sandwich cool for a minute before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

FAQ:

Can I use a different bread?
You can! Sourdough works great, but ciabatta or Italian bread are solid choices too for your prosciutto sandwich.

Can I swap the mozzarella?
Fresh mozzarella melts best, but provolone or fontina cheese would work just fine.

Do I have to use an air fryer?
Nope! You can make this on the stovetop, but the air fryer crisps the sandwich quickly and evenly.
