# Ingredient List:
→ Filling
01 - 1 cup broccoli florets, finely chopped
02 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
03 - 1 garlic clove, minced
04 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
05 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
06 - 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
07 - 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
→ Sandwich
08 - 4 slices sourdough or whole grain bread
09 - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or softened butter for spreading
# Directions:
01 - Preheat the air fryer to 375°F for 3 minutes.
02 - Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and broccoli; sauté 3 to 4 minutes until broccoli is bright green and tender. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
03 - In a bowl, mix the sautéed broccoli with cream cheese and shredded cheddar until homogenous.
04 - Lay out bread slices and spread a thin layer of mayonnaise or softened butter on one side of each slice.
05 - Divide the broccoli-cheddar filling evenly on the unbuttered side of two bread slices. Top with the remaining slices, buttered side out, forming sandwiches.
06 - Place sandwiches in the air fryer basket; cook at 375°F for 4 to 5 minutes per side, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crisp.
07 - Allow sandwiches to cool briefly before slicing and serving.
