How to Cook a Pizza in an Air Fryer

What You Need to Get Started

To get started with cooking a pizza in an air fryer, you’ll need a few essential items: an air fryer, a pizza, a pizza pan, and a pair of tongs. If you plan on making more than one pizza, you may also want to invest in a pizza cutter. Make sure your air fryer is big enough to fit the pizza you plan to cook.

Preparing the Pizza

Once you have all the necessary items, it’s time to prepare the pizza. Start by preheating your air fryer to 400°F. While the fryer is preheating, place your pizza on the pizza pan. If you’re using a pre-made pizza, make sure you follow the instructions on the package.

Cooking the Pizza

Once the air fryer is preheated, carefully place the pizza pan with the pizza inside the air fryer. Close the air fryer lid and set the timer for 12 minutes. Make sure to check the pizza every few minutes to ensure it’s not burning and that it’s cooking evenly.

Checking the Pizza

When the timer goes off, use the tongs to carefully remove the pizza from the fryer and place it on a heat-safe surface. Check the pizza to make sure it’s cooked through. If the cheese hasn’t melted or the crust looks too crispy, cook it for a few more minutes.

Serving the Pizza

Once the pizza is cooked through, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious pizza made in an air fryer!
