Description

Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza is a quick and easy recipe that transforms a simple flour tortilla into a crispy, flavorful personal pizza. With a golden tortilla crust, melted mozzarella cheese, rich pizza sauce, and customizable toppings, this pizza is perfect for a fast lunch, snack, or light dinner. Ready in just minutes using an air fryer, it’s an effortless way to enjoy homemade pizza without the need for traditional dough or lengthy preparation.

Ingredients

Base

  • 1 large flour tortilla
  • Cooking spray, as needed

Pizza Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons pizza sauce

Cheese

  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Toppings

  • 8–10 slices pepperoni (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Garnish

  • Fresh basil, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 2–3 minutes to ensure it’s hot and ready for cooking.
  2. Prepare the tortilla base: Lightly spray the flour tortilla with cooking spray to help it crisp up in the air fryer and prevent sticking. Place it flat inside the air fryer basket.
  3. Add the sauce: Spread 3 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges to keep the sauce contained and prevent sogginess.
  4. Layer the cheese and toppings: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce. Add the pepperoni slices or any favorite toppings you choose on top of the cheese.
  5. Season the pizza: Sprinkle Italian seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese over the toppings for added flavor and a savory finish.
  6. Air fry the pizza: Cook in the air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 4–6 minutes until the cheese has melted, is bubbly, and the tortilla edges turn golden brown and crispy.
  7. Garnish and serve: Carefully remove the tortilla pizza from the air fryer basket. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired, slice into pieces, and serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Notes

  • Use a light layer of sauce to prevent the tortilla from becoming soggy.
  • Secure lightweight toppings with cheese to keep them from moving around inside the air fryer during cooking.
  • Cooking time may vary depending on your air fryer model and the thickness of your tortilla.
  • Try swapping toppings like mushrooms, bell peppers, olives, or cooked chicken to customize your pizza.
  • For a crispier crust, air fry the tortilla for 1 minute before adding the sauce and toppings.
