Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Let it get nice and hot while you prep.
  • Lay your naan slices out on a clean surface. Sprinkle half your shredded mozzarella over one slice.
  • Layer the sliced tomatoes evenly on top of the cheese, followed by the fresh basil leaves.
  • Drizzle balsamic vinegar or glaze over the basil if using.
  • Top with the remaining mozzarella and the second naan slice to close the sandwich.
  • Spray both sides of the sandwich lightly with oil.
  • Place sandwich in the air fryer basket and cook for 6–8 minutes.
  • Flip halfway through to ensure even crisping on both sides.

Notes

Use pre-shredded cheese and store-bought tomato/basil packs as shortcuts. Reheat leftovers in the air fryer for crisp results.
