Ingredients

  • 8 ounces - pizza dough
  • 12 tablespoons - pizza sauce
  • 12 ounces - fresh mozzarella
  • 4 teaspoons - fresh basil leaves
  • 4 teaspoon - red pepper

Instructions

  1. Roll your pizza dough (about 2 oz) on a lightly floured surface until you reach your desired thinness. Make sure that the circumference of your dough will fit in your air fryer.
  2. Add parchment paper to your air fryer as some air fryers are not evenly flat, and your dough won’t cook flat, nor evenly.
  3. Add your rolled-out pizza dough to your air fryer. Cook the dough for 3 minutes at 370 degrees.
  4. Once the time is complete, keep in the air fryer to add your toppings as it is easier than transferring in and out.
  5. Add 3 TBSP pizza sauce and spread evenly on your dough.
  6. Distribute your sliced mozzarella evenly on the sauce.
  7. Cook again for 5 minutes at 370 degrees.
  8. Once complete, remove your pizza from the air fryer. Add your basil, and red peppers.
