Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 1 medium flour tortilla (8 to 10-inch)
Sauce and Cheese
- 2–3 tablespoons pizza sauce or marinara
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Toppings
- 6–8 slices of turkey pepperoni (or toppings of choice)
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Optional toppings: diced bell peppers, mushrooms, olives, onions, spinach
Other
- Cooking spray or olive oil (optional for crispier base)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and preheat it for 3 minutes to ensure the cooking environment is ready for a crispy pizza base.
- Prepare the tortilla base: Lightly spray one side of the tortilla with cooking spray or brush it with olive oil to help achieve a crispier crust. Place the oiled side down in the air fryer basket or tray.
- Add sauce and toppings: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the tortilla, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Add turkey pepperoni slices or your preferred toppings, and finish with a sprinkle of Italian seasoning for enhanced flavor.
- Cook the pizza: Air fry the tortilla pizza for 5–7 minutes until the edges turn crispy and the cheese has melted beautifully, indicating the pizza is ready.
- Serve: Remove the pizza carefully from the air fryer, let it cool for 1–2 minutes to avoid burns, then slice and enjoy your quick, crispy Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza!
Notes
- For a crispier crust, don’t skip the cooking spray or olive oil step on the tortilla base.
- Feel free to customize the toppings with your favorite vegetables or meats.
- Keep an eye on the pizza during the last few minutes to prevent overcooking or burning.
- Use a 8 to 10-inch tortilla for best results, as smaller or larger sizes may affect cooking time.
