This air fryer take on the classic deli Reuben delivers a crunchy, golden crust without a griddle full of butter. Layers of corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and Russian dressing get pressed between rye bread and crisped in minutes. It works well for a quick lunch or weeknight dinner alongside pickles or chips.
Ingredients
- 4 slices rye bread
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 6 ounces corned beef, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup sauerkraut, drained well
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 4 tablespoons Russian dressing
Method
-
Squeeze the drained sauerkraut with paper towels to remove as much liquid as possible.
-
Butter one side of each slice of rye bread.
-
Flip two slices buttered-side down and spread each with 1 tablespoon Russian dressing.
-
Layer each with 2 slices Swiss cheese, half the corned beef, half the sauerkraut, and top with the remaining dressing.
-
Cap each sandwich with the remaining bread slices, buttered-side up.
-
Preheat the air fryer to 360°F for 3 minutes.
-
Place the sandwiches in the air fryer basket and cook for 6 minutes, then flip carefully and cook another 4 minutes, until the bread is golden and crisp and the cheese is melted.

Let sandwiches rest 2 minutes, then slice in half and serve warm.
