Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 store-bought pita bread
  • ¼ cup pizza sauce
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 14 slices pepperoni
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions

  • Set the air fryer to 375°F and let it preheat for 2–3 minutes before adding the pita pizzas.
  • Spread 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce over each of the store-bought pita breads.
  • Divide the mozzarella cheese between both pita breads.
  • Arrange pepperoni slices and any additional toppings as desired.
  • Sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
  • Carefully place the assembled pita pizza in the air fryer basket and cook for 5-6 minutes.
  • Slice and garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired.

Notes

  • Preheat the air fryer which will give you a crispier base and even cooking.
  • Be careful not to use too much sauce. Too much can make the pita soggy, so use just a thin layer.
  • Keep the toppings light and evenly spread so everything cooks evenly and doesn’t weigh down the pita.
  • Make sure you use shredded cheese melts faster and more evenly than slices.
  • Air fryers cook quickly—start with 4–5 minutes and check often to avoid burning.
