Ingredients

1 flour tortilla
2 tbsp pizza sauce

1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
8 pepperoni slices

Olive oil or olive oil spray
Italian seasoning

Instructions

Step 1: Place the tortilla on a cutting board or large plate. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the tortilla, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Arrange the pepperoni slices over the cheese.
Step 2: Add a light spray or drizzle of olive oil over the pizza, then sprinkle a pinch of Italian seasoning to enhance the flavor.
Step 3: Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Once heated, carefully transfer the tortilla pizza to the air fryer basket. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, checking around the 3-minute mark to ensure it’s cooking evenly.

Step 4: Remove the pizza from the air fryer and let it cool slightly. Cut into slices and enjoy your quick and tasty tortilla pizza!

Tips & Variations

For a vegetarian option, replace pepperoni with sliced mushrooms, bell peppers, or olives.
Try adding a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.

Use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas to suit dietary preferences.
To add extra flavor, brush the tortilla edges with garlic butter before cooking.

Storage

Store any leftover tortilla pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place it back in the air fryer at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 2-3 minutes to regain crispiness, or microwave for 30-45 seconds for convenience.

How to Serve

Large, shiny, dark red pepperoni slices with a slight curl at the edges are scattered on top, sprinkled with small green herbs, adding texture and contrast.
