Recipe Notes
Air Fryer Pizza Tips
- Use your favorite pizza dough--either you want a soft pizza with a delicate crust or a rustic pizza with a crunchier crust. I recommend using this Pizza Dough Recipe to make air fryer pizza.
- Always cook the pizza dough without toppings for 3 minutes to ensure the dough cooks through after adding in the toppings.
- If the dough forms an air bubble during air frying, simply poke it using a fork or spatula.
- Layer the toppings (today we used this 2 minute delicious no cook Pizza Sauce, Basil Pesto and mozzarella cheese.)
- Keep the same temperature and air fry after you add the toppings but keep an eye out on the pizza. It ay take between 6-8 minutes depending on the size and thickness of your pizza dough.
- The pizza is ready when cheese has melted, toppings have softened and the crust has a golden brown color.
- Carefully remove the pizza from the air fryer as it will be hot to the touch, so use tongs.
- If you want a short cut, try these tasty Air Fryer Pizza Rolls.
- slice and enjoy!
Reheat pizza in air fryer
Whether you're making air fryer pizza, any other type of pizza or even take out, the BEST way to reheat pizza is in the air fryer. Take the leftover or cold slice of pizza and place in the air fryer basket. Select the reheat function and set it for 2-3 minutes.
If you don't have a reheat function in your air fryer , then set the temperature to 325 degrees F and air fry for 3-4 minutes.
You'll get a beautiful crisp on the crust, the cheese melts beautifully and the pizza tastes fresh as if it just came out of the oven or pizzeria.
