Description
This Easy Air Fryer Pizza recipe offers a quick and convenient way to enjoy homemade mini pizzas with flaky biscuit dough, savory Italian sausage, pepperoni, and gooey mozzarella cheese, all cooked to golden perfection in just minutes using an air fryer.
Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 1 can Grands Biscuits with flaky layers
Toppings
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 1/2 pound fully cooked Italian sausage
- 1 package pepperoni slices
- 8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: Open the package of biscuits and carefully separate each biscuit into two flaky layers. Roll each piece out into a 4-inch circle to form the pizza base.
- Add Sauce: Spread about 2 teaspoons of pizza sauce evenly onto each dough circle, ensuring even coverage but leaving a small edge free to mimic a pizza crust.
- Layer the Toppings: Distribute pepperoni slices and fully cooked Italian sausage over the sauce, then generously top with shredded mozzarella cheese to cover the toppings.
- Prepare the Air Fryer: Spray the air fryer basket with a non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking. Gently place 2 to 4 of the prepared pizzas into the basket, making sure to leave about an inch of space between each pizza to allow for proper air circulation.
- Air Fry: Cook the mini pizzas in the air fryer at 400°F (approximately 204°C) for 4 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the cheese has melted beautifully.
- Cool and Serve: Carefully remove the pizzas from the basket and let them cool slightly on a wire cooling rack before serving. Repeat the air frying process with the remaining pizzas in batches.
Notes
- Ensure the sausage is fully cooked before adding to the pizzas to avoid undercooking.
- Adjust the toppings according to preference, such as adding vegetables or different cheeses.
- Cooking times may vary slightly depending on the air fryer model; monitor to avoid burning.
- For crispier crust, consider lightly brushing the dough edges with olive oil before adding toppings.
