Air Fryer Mini Pizza


Ingredients:

  • 1 package pizza dough
  • 2 tablespoon butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1-2 cups pizza sauce
  • 1-2 cups mozzarella cheese shredded

Optional Toppings:

  • 1 cup pepperoni
  • ¼ cup olives sliced
  • ½ cup tomatoes diced
  • 1 cup spinach chopped
  • 10 leaves basil

Instructions: 

  1. Spread the pizza dough flat on a cutting board. Cut into 12 circles with a cookie cutter or rim of a cup. Alternatively, cut into squares with a pizza cutter. Brush the air fryer basket or tray lightly with olive oil and place dough circles on the basket.
  2. Optional: Mix the melted butter with the parsley, salt, and garlic powder. Brush the pizza dough circles with the butter sauce.
  3. Add about 2 teaspoons of pizza sauce, then 1 tablespoon of cheese. Add your favorite toppings.
  4. Air fry at 375° Fahrenheit and cook for 5-6 minutes, until cheese is golden brown. You may need to work in batches, depending on the size of your air fryer.
  5. Remove and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Brush the air fryer basket lightly with olive oil so the dough doesn’t stick. You can also sprinkle a little cornmeal on top of the oil for extra protection against stuck dough!
  • Remove from the basket using a spatula, not tongs. But first, let them rest a minute or two in the basket or tray.
  • Use the air fryer basket or tray with the holes so that the pizza dough crisps up on the bottom and the pizza cooks evenly. I don’t recommend lining the bottom with parchment paper.
  • Storing: store in the fridge wrapped in aluminum foil for up to 3 days. They can be frozen for up to 6 months.
  • Reheating: in the air fryer from the fridge for 1-2 minutes. Reheat directly from the freezer for 4-5 minutes to completely defrost and warm through.
