10-Minute Air Fryer Naan Pizza (Super Easy!)
Description
The recipe begins by preheating the air fryer and optionally crisping the naan bread alone before adding toppings. The sauce spread and scattered toppings include mini mozzarella balls (or a substitute), sundried tomatoes, Parmesan, and seasoning. The air fryer cooks the pizza in 5-7 minutes until the cheese melts and develops some golden spots.
The naan base provides a soft yet slightly crispy texture, while the combination of creamy mozzarella and sharp Parmesan adds richness. Sundried tomatoes offer a sweet acidity balanced by fresh basil added after cooking. Air frying concentrates the flavors and crisps the crust faster than an oven.
Serving suggestions include a green, garden, or Greek salad for a fresh contrast alongside the warm pizza. The recipe notes options for mini naans or cutting larger ones to fit the air fryer basket and alternatives for cooking in a traditional oven.
This recipe yields 1 naan pizza, so multiply ingredients to serve more.Adjust toppings quantity as preferred for personalized flavor or texture.Any mozzarella form can be used if bocconcini is unavailable.Cut naan to fit if full size does not fit your air fryer basket.Different flavored naans like garlic or cheese varieties also work here.Pair with simple fresh salads like Greek salad for a light meal.Alternatively, bake in an oven at 410°F (210°C) for 15-20 minutes until crispy.
Ingredients
- 1 naan bread ready baked (full sized), or several mini naans
- 3 tablespoons pasta sauce jarred or fresh of your choice
- 4 mozzarella cheese bocconcini, mini balls
- 3 sundried tomatoes cut into pieces, or use sundried tomato strips
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese grated

- ¼ bunch basil fresh (1 handful, fresh
to serve (suggestion)
- green salad simple
- garden salad
- Greek salad
Instructions
- Pre-heat the air fryer to 375F / 190C. If you like extra crispy pizza, add the naan bread (without the toppings) to the air fryer at this point.
- Spread the pasta sauce over the naan bread, then scatter with the mozzarella and tomatoes, parmesan (if using), and black pepper. This can either be done inside the air fryer, or on a wooden board or plate.
- Cook in the air fryer basket for 5-7 minutes, or until the mozzarella is bubbling and starting to brown. Check half way through if making for the first time in your air fryer.
- Scatter with the fresh basil and serve immediately alone or with a simple salad.
