Why Make Pizza in an Air Fryer?
I’ll be honest with you. My favorite way to make pizza is in a super hot oven on a pizza steel. The crust rises perfectly and a thin crust pizza cooks in about ten minutes. But… you do need to pre-heat your oven and pizza steel to 500˚F for at least 30 minutes before you put your pizza in the oven. That’s a long time, especially if it’s the summertime and having your oven at 500˚F is the last thing you need. So, for those occasions when you want a pizza quickly and easily, make an air fryer pan pizza. You can make a pizza in a basket-style air fryer or an air fryer oven, but obviously it’s a little easier with the oven style air fryers and you can make a larger pizza too.
