Ingredients
4 hot dog buns
4 hot dogs
8 slices cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
2 tablespoons butter (softened)
Optional toppings: ketchup, mustard, relish, diced onions, jalapeños
Instructions
Preheat your air fryer: Set to 375°F (190°C) and preheat for 3 minutes.
Cook the hot dogs: Place hot dogs in the air fryer basket. Cook for 4–5 minutes until heated through and slightly crispy. Remove and set aside.
Butter the buns: Spread softened butter on the inside and outside of each hot dog bun for golden, toasty results.
Assemble the grilled cheese hot dogs: Open each bun and place one slice of cheese inside, followed by a cooked hot dog, then another slice of cheese on top.
Air fry: Carefully place the assembled hot dogs in the air fryer basket (avoid stacking). Cook at 375°F for 4–6 minutes until the buns are golden and the cheese is melted.
Top and serve: Remove from air fryer. Add desired toppings like ketchup, mustard, relish, or onions. Serve hot and enjoy!
