Air Fryer Pita Pizza
The air fryer makes the edges of the pita golden and just a little crunchy while the cheese gets perfectly melty on top. Under 10 minutes from start to finish. I love these for an after school snack or a quick meal.

Ingredients
- 1 pita bread

- 2 tablespoons pizza sauce
- ¼ cup shredded mozzarella
- 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar
- Pepperoni,sausage, olives, etc. for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees for 3-4 minutes.
- White the air fryer is preheating, brush both sides of the pita bread with olive oil.
- Use a spoon to spread the pizza sauce over the top of the pita bread. Top with the cheeses and any toppings you’d like.
- Carefully place the pita in the pre-heated air fryer basket and cook for 3-4 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the crust is a bit crisp.
- Remove from the air fryer and let sit for 2-3 minutes before slicing and eating.
Notes
If your air fryer tends to blow your food around, you can place the pepperoni and lightweight toppings under the cheese. The cheese melts very quickly in the hot air fryer and can help to hold things in place.
Every air fryer cooks a bit different and everyone likes their pizza cooked to different levels, so you’ll want to check your pizza around the 3 minute mark and just keep cooking until it’s as browned as you like.
