Notes

  • The cooking time is enough to make 2 servings.
  • Besides oregano, you can garnish the pizza with some fresh or dried basil.
  • Feel free to add more cheese! Mini mozzarella balls are also excellent choices.
  • There are other great options for the toppings, including pepperoni, mushrooms, bacon, ham, pineapple, etc.
  • You can use smaller or larger pizza crusts as long as they fit into your air fryer basket. Note that the cooking time might be a bit different.
  • Do not stack the crusts during cooking. You should only cook one pizza at a time unless the basket is large enough to hold more than one in a single layer.
