Tips & Variations

  • For a crispier crust, let the cooked pizza rest in the air fryer basket a few minutes longer before serving.

Storage

Store any leftover tortilla pizzas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 2-3 minutes to keep the crust crispy, or microwave briefly if in a hurry.

Seasoning

  • 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 68 slices pepperoni or toppings of choice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and allow it to preheat fully to ensure even cooking.
