Description

Making pizza at home requires a lot of prep, but what if I told you that the perfect pizza doesn't require hours of waiting or a phone call to your local pizzeria? That's right, with a simple twist, you can create a delicious tortilla pizza in just a matter of minutes!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 Flour Tortilla
  • 1/4 cup Marinara / Pizza Sauce
  • 1/4 cup Mozzarella cheese

Optional Toppings

  • Mushrooms
  • Bell Peppers
  • Spinach
  • Artichokes
  • Roasted Garlic
  • Parmesan
  • Fresh Mozzarella
  • Goat Cheese
  • Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
  • Italian Seasoning
  • Fresh Basil

Instructions

  • Prep Your Tortilla: Begin by placing your tortilla in the air fryer basket. A spritz of oil can ensure extra crispness, but the air fryer's natural convection should suffice to avoid sogginess.
  • Apply Your Sauce Tactfully: Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce, leaving about an inch from the edge clear to mimic a crust and prevent sauce from spilling during the air frying process.
  • Layer Your Toppings: Add your cheese evenly over the sauce and then arrange your additional toppings. Remember, the air fryer works quickly, so there's no need for pre-cooking most toppings.
  • Air Frying Alchemy: Set the temperature to 400°F, and cook for about 4 minutes, or until you notice the edges brown and the cheese bubbling with joy. Air fryers do their magic swiftly, so keep an eye on your pizza to prevent overcooking.
  • The Grand Reveal: Once done, let it cool for a moment in the basket before transferring it to a plate. The cooling period allows the crust to firm up further.

Notes

Try different toppings and flavors

  • Barbecue Paneer Fiesta: Swap the traditional red sauce for smoky barbecue, add roasted paneer, thinly sliced red onions, and finish with a blend of mozzarella and sharp cheddar. A sprinkle of cilantro post-baking offers a fresh kick.
  • Mediterranean Medley: Bring the sun-soaked flavors of the Mediterranean to your table with a pesto base, followed by sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, Kalamata olives, feta cheese, and a swirl of extra virgin olive oil.
  • Taco Tuesday Twist: Reinvent taco night with a piquant salsa as your base. black beans for protein, introduce cheddar cheese, and once out of the oven, top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and a dollop of sour cream.
  • Sweet & Spicy Asian: Merge culinary worlds with a sweet chili sauce base, dot with tofu, and add colorful bell peppers. Top with mozzarella, then after baking, garnish with spring onions and a drizzle of sriracha.
  • Buffalo Tempest: For those who like it hot, slather your tortilla with buffalo sauce, arrange strips of blue cheese, and panner or tofu. Post-bake, cool the blaze with a scattering of diced celery and a drizzle of blue cheese or ranch dressing.
