Ingredient Notes:

Ingredients for French bread pizza.

French bread – This recipe calls for a half loaf mostly due to the size of the most common air fryers. You can double the recipe and just cook the pizza bread in batches, if you like.

Basic toppings- You’ll want pizza sauce, mozzarella, Parmesan, and a little Italian seasoning.

Personalized toppings- We chose pepperoni and black olives. You can go crazy with this adding bacon, sausage, mushrooms, onions, or even…PINEAPPLE! Just make it the way you want it. Be sure any meat used is precooked.

How to Make French Bread Pizza in Air Fryer:

Prepare your pizza toppings– Slice your half loaf of bread in half lengthwise so that you have 2 long pieces that will fit in your air fryer. Spread each piece of bread with pizza sauce, then top with your cheese, Italian seasoning, and your personalized toppings. For us, that was pepperoni and black olives.

Air fry the pizza bread – Place your bread in the air fryer basket and cook for 5 minutes at 380 degrees. It is done when the edges are toasted and cheese is melted. Cook longer if needed as each air fryer is a little different. Slice and serve!

FAQ:

How do I prevent my French bread pizza from getting soggy?

For extra crispy bread, preheat your air fryer before adding the pizza bread. Also, be careful not to overdo the sauce or you’ll end up with a soggier pizza.

Can I add any toppings I want to French bread pizza?

Of course, just don’t use any raw meats with this recipe. All meats need to be fully cooked before topping your pizza with them.

How to Make Your French Bread Pizza Better!

  • Add some garlic or red pepper flakes to get a bit of kick if you prefer that in your pizza.
  • BACON!!! It makes everything better and can certainly enhance your pizza. Crumble up some of our air fryer bacon here!
  • Blend your cheese if you want. All cheese is a good choice, in my opinion. 😉
  • Reheat your left overs in the air fryer. Should only take about 5 minutes at 300 degrees F.
  • Use alfredo instead of marinara, or a cheese sauce instead of marinara if you aren’t a fan of the tomato sauce style pizzas.
