   • Place the assembled lasagna in the air fryer basket or on the tray. You may need to cut the lasagna noodles to fit the size of your air fryer.
   • Cook the lasagna in the air fryer for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the lasagna is heated through.
4. Serve: Carefully remove the lasagna from the air fryer and let it cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired, and serve hot.
