Ingredients

1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed
1 cup pizza sauce
1/2 pound bulk Italian sausage, cooked and drained
1-1/3 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 small green pepper, sliced into rings
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Crushed red pepper flakes, optional

Directions

On a lightly floured surface, roll and stretch dough into four 4-in. circles. Cover; let rest for 10 minutes.
Preheat air fryer to 400°. Roll and stretch each dough into a 6-in. circle. Place 1 crust on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Carefully spread with 1/4 cup pizza sauce, 1/3 cup sausage, 1/3 cup cheese, a fourth of the green pepper rings and a pinch of oregano. Cook until crust is golden brown, 6-8 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with red pepper flakes. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Air-Fryer Pizza Tips

What other toppings can you put on air-fryer pizza?

The options are endless! Feel free to use olives, mushrooms, onions, pepperoni or any other beloved pizza topping. You can also experiment with different cheeses, such as Parmesan, Asiago or fresh mozzarella. Finally, instead of bread dough, try a prebaked crust or mini naan bread. Check out other pizza recipes for more topping ideas.

How can you keep the toppings from flying around in the air fryer?

If your toppings are ending up everywhere but on your pizza, lightly grease the air-fryer rack with olive oil and place it atop your pizza. By the way, here’s what an air fryer really does to your food.

How can you make the crust crispier for air-fryer pizza?

For a crispier crust, either parbake your pizza dough or leave the entire pizza in the air fryer for a few extra minutes. For more air-fried goodness, check out these recipes
