Delicious Air-fried Bologna Sandwich Recipe For A Quick Meal (Print version)
A quick air-fried bologna sandwich with crisp edges, melty cheese, toasted bread, mustard, mayo, and pickles.
# Ingredients:
For the sandwich
01 -
4 slices bologna, regular or thick-cut
02 -
4 slices sandwich bread or 2 soft sandwich buns
03 -
2 slices American cheese or cheddar
04 -
2 teaspoons yellow mustard, plus more to taste
05 -
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
06 -
8 dill pickle chips
07 -
2 lettuce leaves, optional
08 -
2 tomato slices, optional
09 -
1 teaspoon softened butter or cooking spray for the bread
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F for 2-3 minutes. A hot basket helps the bologna brown quickly.
02 -
Make 3 or 4 short slits around the edge of each bologna slice, or cut a small X in the center. Do not cut all the way through the slice.
03 -
Place the bologna in a single layer. Air fry for 4-6 minutes, flipping halfway through, until hot with browned, crisp edges.
04 -
Place cheese on two of the hot bologna slices and air fry for 30-45 seconds more, just until melted.
05 -
Lightly butter or spray the bread. Air fry for 1-2 minutes until warm and lightly toasted.
06 -
Spread mustard and mayonnaise on the bread. Add the cheesy bologna, extra bologna slices, pickles, lettuce, and tomato if using. Serve right away.
# Good to know:
01 -
Best served immediately while the bologna edges are crisp.
02 -
Use thick-cut bologna for a heartier sandwich and add 1-2 minutes if needed.
