Easy Air Fryer Pizza
Description
The recipe for Easy Air Fryer Pizza starts with separating canned biscuit dough into thin layers, rolled out into small circles. Each dough round is lightly topped with pizza sauce and evenly layered with sliced pepperoni, fully cooked Italian sausage pieces, and shredded mozzarella cheese. The pizzas are spaced apart in a sprayed air fryer basket to allow even cooking.
Cooking at 400°F for around four minutes crisps the biscuit dough to a golden brown with slightly flaky edges while melting the cheese topping. The result is a handheld, satisfying pizza with a tender interior and a lightly crispy crust, demonstrating an alternative quicker cooking method for pizza without yeast dough.
This recipe is suitable for quick snacks, lunches, or easy dinners when time or resources are limited. Multiple pizzas can be cooked in batches and allowed to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Ingredients
- 1 can Biscuits with flaky layers, Grands brand
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 1/2 pound Italian sausage fully cooked
- 1 package pepperoni slices
- 8 ounces mozzarella cheese shredded
Instructions
- Open the package of biscuits and separate each biscuit into two layers. Roll each piece of biscuit out into a 4-inch circle.
- Top each dough circle with about 2 teaspoons of pizza sauce.
- Add pepperoni and sausage and then top with mozzarella cheese.
- Spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray. Gently transfer 2-4 of the pizzas to the basket, leaving about 1 inch of space between each.
- Air fry the pizzas at 400° for 4 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove the pizzas from the basket and cool slightly on a wire cooling rack. Repeat the cooking process with the remaining pizzas.
