    Expert Tips

    • Use store-bought prepared crust or homemade dough for this recipe.
    • If you like your crust crispier, add 2-3 minutes to your cook time.
    • Flatbreads or bagels also work great in place of the naan bread.
    • Spray the air fryer basket lightly with oil, if the pizza sticks. You could use parchment paper too.

    Toppings & Variations

    • Try a pesto pizza - basil pesto sauce, mozzarella and basil leaves.
    • Make a margherita pizza - red pizza sauce, mozzarella, basil leaves and drizzle of olive oil.
    • Basic topping favorites include chopped peppers, onions, mushrooms, pineapple, bacon, shredded chicken or sausage.

    Storing & Freezing

    Storing: Store leftover pizzas in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat at 375 degrees in the oven for best results.

    Freezing: Place in a freezer safe zip top bag or container and freeze for up to 3 months.

    Recipe FAQ's

    Can I make this pizza vegetarian?

    Yes, you can make vegetarian pizza by topping with vegetarian-friendly toppings.

    Can I use homemade pizza dough?

    Shape the homemade dough and then pre-bake the crust for about 4 minutes. Then add the pizza sauce, cheese and toppings and bake again according to directions.

    How do I reheat pizza in an air fryer?

    Reheating pizza in the air fryer is so much better than using a microwave and way quicker than using the oven. Add it to a preheated air fryer at 320 degrees F and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.

    How to I cook frozen pizza in the air fryer?

    If you froze the cooked pizza to eat at a later time, cook it at 380 degrees F for 8-10 minutes in the air fryer.

    Can I make these pizzas as a freezer meal prep?

    Assemble the naan bread, complete with sauce and toppings. Place the uncooked pizza on a cookie tray and partially freeze for an hour. Remove pizza from cookie sheet and wrap individually in plastic wrap. Place in a freezer safe bag or container for up to 3 months. When ready to bake, remove pizza from plastic wrap and place in air fryer. Cook the pizza for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked as desired.
