Ingredients:
- Mini pizza dough rounds (store-bought or homemade)
- Tomato sauce or pizza sauce
- Shredded mozzarella cheese
- Toppings of your choice (e.g., pepperoni, sliced bell peppers, olives, mushrooms, onions)
- Olive oil (for brushing)
- Italian seasoning or dried oregano (optional)
- Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for a few minutes.
- While the air fryer is preheating, prepare your mini pizza dough rounds. If using store-bought dough, follow the package instructions for rolling it out into mini pizza crusts. If making homemade dough, divide the dough into mini portions and roll them out into rounds.
- Place a sheet of parchment paper or aluminum foil in the air fryer basket to prevent sticking.
- Place the mini pizza dough rounds on the parchment paper or foil.
- Brush each pizza dough round lightly with olive oil. This helps them crisp up nicely in the air fryer.
- Spread a layer of tomato or pizza sauce on each mini pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce.
- Add your desired pizza toppings. Be creative and customize each mini pizza to your liking.
- Optionally, sprinkle some Italian seasoning or dried oregano on top for extra flavor.
- Carefully place the air fryer basket in the preheated air fryer and cook the mini pizzas for about 5-7 minutes or until the crust is crispy and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown. Cooking times may vary depending on your air fryer model, so keep an eye on them.
- Once done, use a spatula to carefully lift the mini pizzas out of the air fryer.
- If desired, sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top before serving.
- Let them cool for a minute or two before enjoying your delicious and quick air fryer mini pizzas!
