This was very easy and so delicious! I took your advice in the notes section of the recipe card about adding the mayonnaise and wowsers! It made it even more creamy! I will never make it another way again \u2013 thanks Brandie!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: <\/h2>\n
\n
What kind of bread should I use? <\/strong> <\/p>\n

Make sure you choose a thicker slice of bread. I used Italian bread but you can use French bread. I wouldn\u2019t use something thin like a sandwich sliced bread because you need something substantial to hold the cheese. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Can I use a different cheese?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

I used mozzarella because it\u2019s a the classic cheese to use for garlic cheese bread. You can swap it out with cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack, or any other good melting cheese you enjoy.
Additionally, I used quite a bit of cheese for this cheesy bread. We love it cheesy but you can absolutely lessen the amount to fit your preferences!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Do I have to use garlic powder?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

While this is an easy thing to use since most people have it in their cupboards, you can easily swap it out for fresh minced garlic or jarred garlic in its place.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Can I make this ahead of time?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

I know it is nice to have stuff done for dinner ahead of time and it\u2019s even nice if you can make an extra batch to freeze for later. With this recipe, you can do both!
You can make these earlier in the day and then reheat in the air fryer when ready to serve. You can also make a second and third batch to freeze for later. To do this, let them cool, then cover with plastic wrap or aluminum foil before freezing for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

What size Air Fryer did you use?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

I tested this recipe in a 5 quart basket Air Fryer. This is the style that a majority of Americans own. If you have a different style then you\u2019ll need to adjust the cooking time based on your own knowledge of your particular air fryer. It\u2019s impossible for me to test a recipe on every possible style and brand of air fryer on the market.
Just be sure to leave enough room around your bread slices so the hot air can circulate and melt the cheese on the bread evenly. If you overcrowd the basket, the bread won\u2019t bake evenly and cheese won\u2019t melt evenly either.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

How to soften butter quickly?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

Did you forget to pull out the butter for it to soften? Don\u2019t worry, you\u2019re in good company! I\u2019d be lying if I said I don\u2019t forget quite often. Here are a few things you can do to soften butter a but more quickly:
\u2013 Fill a glass with boiling water and let it sit for a few minutes. Dump the water out and place it upside down over a standing stick of butter (on a plate) to help it soften faster.
\u2013 Roll or pound the butter in between two sheets of parchment paper (seems odd but works!)
\u2013 Cube or grate the butter. By cutting it into smaller pieces it will soften faster.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Won\u2019t the cheese go flying all over the place in the air fryer? <\/strong> <\/p>\n

Surprisingly, it doesn\u2019t. It is held on by the butter on the bread. I recommend this for cheese toast as well. Swipe a bit of butter on the bread before adding a slice of cheese. It will keep it on as it toasts in the air fryer. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

What\u2019s the serving size for this recipe?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

We used a whole loaf of bread for this recipe. There are normally 12 slices of bread in a loaf. Generally a serving size is 2 slices of bread, so this recipe has 6 servings. If you think one slice is enough, this could serve more.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

What if I don\u2019t have an air fryer? <\/strong> <\/p>\n

No problem. This can be made in the oven. See my recipe here <\/a>for instructions. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

How to store leftovers?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

If you have leftovers, wait for them to cool. Then wrap them in aluminum foil and place in the fridge for 3-4 days. To reheat, pop the bread slices back in the Air Fryer for 2-3 minutes. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
