This time I decided to make an air fried pizza. Who doesn’t love pizza, if you love pizza you’ll love this Air Fryer Pepperoni Pizza Recipe.

The Best Air Fryer Pepperoni Pizza Recipe
So of course I’m a little biased, I made this pizza, a few times and it tasted great each and every time. So why wouldn’t I say they’re the best when I believe they are? I do have a few tips for anyone who is thinking of making this recipe though so check them out.
Pizza in air fryer. They’re great but I understand not everyone will have the same air fryer that I do. I know that some people like to use silicone moulds in their air fryer, which don’t get me wrong they’re great. With this recipe though, avoid them. I find instead, it’s easier to use baking paper under your pizza. This makes the pizza so much easier to transfer to your air fryer and also makes sure the pizza is cooked evenly.
Another air fryer pizza recipe tip, don’t overload your pizza. If you have too much topping then the pizza will burn on the top and take longer to cook in the middle and you don’t want a burnt pizza. Make sure you have a moderate amount of topping on your ninja foodi pizza so that you get the best pizza possible.
Ninja Foodi Pizza
I love making a pizza in ninja foodi air fryers. They take a lot less time than using an oven and also use a lot less electricity. The ninja foodi is great if you’re looking to cut back on your electric bills. It doesn’t need to be preheated unlike an oven and it’s a lot easier to clean!
Whereas with an oven you’d have to spend time pre-heating and then cooking your pizza, you won’t need to when you do the pizza in ninja foodie air fryer ad I love it. You can always buy smaller, pre-made pizzas to go in the air fryer but that’s a whole different recipe altogether.
