Basically:

SRAM Force 22 crankset (2x):

SRAM Force 1 crankset (1x):

Both have the same 'direct mount' system to mount the spider - obviously, the 1x has a spider suited to a single chainring, the 2x has a spider suited to mounting two chainrings.

Now, you can buy 'direct mount' chainrings from other brands that are meant to fit the SRAM 1x cranks, such as this WolfTooth one, fully replacing the spider:

Can I just mount this on the 2x crankset as well, seeing as the system is the same, and end up with the correct chainline for a 1x system?

Ah. That I'm not 100% sure on. I assume the cranks are identical so it'd be fine...

I do know you could just fit one of these onto the inside of the 110/130bcd double spider

Thanks - I think I'll need something like 44t or larger though, and I'm not sure I like the looks of just one chainring on the inside of the spider.

But yeah, it seems the cranks are identical apart from the spiders mounted to them, so it should work.
