Ingredients

Bread Base

  • 4 slices slices of bread (any type, from white to whole grain)

Sauce and Cheese

  • 4 tablespoons pizza sauce (rich and tangy, for that authentic pizza flavor)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (melty, stretchy, and blissful)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano (adds a hint of earthiness)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (for a fragrant kick)
  • 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni or toppings of choice (optional, for those who love the classic combo)
  • olive oil spray (to help achieve that perfectly crispy texture)

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  • Lightly spray both sides of the bread slices with olive oil.
  • Spread the pizza sauce evenly on each slice and sprinkle mozzarella cheese.
  • Add dried oregano, garlic powder, and any optional toppings like pepperoni.

Cooking

  • Arrange the bread slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  • Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are golden brown.

Serving

  • Remove the slices from the air fryer and allow them to cool for a minute before serving.

Notes

For a creative twist, consider adding fresh basil or arugula, experimenting with different cheeses, or incorporating sweet toppings like pineapple. Batch cooking is also recommended when preparing for a crowd.
