Ingredients

Main Ingredients

4 pieces frozen Uncrustables sandwiches (any flavor)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (optional) For brushing

Instructions

Preparation

Remove the Uncrustables from their plastic wrappers. Discard the packaging.
Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (about 1–2 minutes) if your model recommends preheating.
Place up to four frozen Uncrustables in a single layer in the basket. Don’t crowd them.
Lightly brush the tops with melted butter using a pastry brush. This step is optional but promotes golden color.

Cooking

Cook at 350°F: For sweet Uncrustables (jelly/jam): 6–8 minutes; For savory varieties (cheese, meat alternatives): 8–10 minutes.
Check after the minimum time. The sandwiches should be golden and slightly puffed.
Let them cool 2–3 minutes before serving to avoid burns from hot filling.

Notes

Butter can be swapped for a light spray of olive oil or a dairy-free spread. If using homemade crustless sandwiches, seal them well to prevent leaking during air frying. Use caution when serving to kids as the filling can be very hot.
