Ingredients
  

  • 4 tablespoons butter melted
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 6 slices Texas toast
  • 2/3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 6 slices Provolone cheese thin
  • chopped fresh parsley

Equipment

  • toothpicks
  • Air Fryer

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, stir together butter, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes.
  2. If you want a crunchier Texas toast, stick the bread slices in a toaster to get them lightly toasted before proceeding with the recipe. For softer bread, you can skip this step.
  3. Brush butter mixture on one side of bread slices.
  4. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on each piece and cover it with a slice of Provolone cheese. To prevent the mozzarella cheese from blowing off, secure with a toothpick.
  5. Fit 2 to 4 pieces of bread in the air fryer, depending on how many you can fit. Air fry at 350 degrees for 4 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining bread slices.
  6. If desired, sprinkle with parsley.

Notes

  • Storage: Store leftover cheesy toast in an airtight container in the fridge. It’s best enjoyed fresh, but it can last for a couple of days.
  • Freezing: You can also freeze leftover toast! Wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer bag. When ready to eat, just pop them in the air fryer for a quick reheat.
  • Pairing: This toast pairs wonderfully with soups or salads. It can also be served as a snack or appetizer at gatherings.
  • Serving Temperature: Enjoy your Air Fryer Cheesy Texas Toast hot for the best flavor experience. The cheese will be melty and delicious!
  • Experimentation: Don’t hesitate to mix in your favorite spices or herbs in the butter mixture to personalize your toast.
