Ingredients for Air Fryer Pan Pizza<\/h4>\n

Pizza is one of my favorite meals. Period. I love it because you can put anything on a pizza and have a different meal every time. There are a few basic ingredients you will need, however. The first and most important ingredient is the dough. Pizza dough is easy to make and my recipe for pizza dough lasts for up to 5 days in your refrigerator so it\u2019s perfect to make ahead of time. If you want a\u00a0really<\/em>\u00a0tasty pizza dough, try my sourdough pizza dough. The next important ingredient is tomato pizza sauce (assuming you are looking for a traditional red pizza pie). Sure, you can buy a jar, but making it is also super easy, can be made ahead of time and is\u00a0very<\/em>\u00a0tasty. Cheese is another basic ingredient for any pizza. You can use mozzarella or another mild, good melting cheese like Monterey Jack. A little grated Parmesan cheese adds a nice nutty, salty flavor to the pizza and a pinch of oregano gives it that Italian flavor. Those are the basics. After that, the world is your oyster\u2026 but don\u2019t put oysters on the pizza. That\u2019s weird. `<\/p>\n

Shaping Dough for the Air Fryer<\/h4>\n

When you shape the dough for your air fryer pan pizza, you are going to stretch it into the shape of whatever pan you are using. Most air fryer ovens come with a baking pan that you will use. If you have a basket-style air fryer, find a pan that fits inside easily and create an aluminum foil sling to help you put the pan into and take it out of the air fryer. (That means, fold a long piece of aluminum foil into a strip about 16 inches long and about 3 inches wide. Rest the pan on top of the sling and pick up the edges of the foil to lift the pan up.) If, when you\u2019re stretching the dough, it constantly wants to shrink back up on you, leave it alone for a little while. The dough needs to rest and be at room temperature in order to stretch easily. If it is too cold or has just been kneaded, it will be tight and elastic. Relax, let the dough relax and then try again.<\/p>\n

How to Re-heat Pizza in Air Fryer<\/h4>\n

The air fryer is a fantastic way to re-heat pizza, whether you made the pizza yourself or not. Pop the pizza into the air fryer basket so that air can circulate all around it and re-heat at 400\u02daF for 5 to 6 minutes, depending on how loaded the pizza is. Then, enjoy it again!<\/p>\n

        Instructions<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
        \n
          \n
        1. Allow your pizza dough to come to room temperature.<\/li>\n
        2. Drizzle a little olive oil on the air fryer baking pan. Brush the oil so it covers the entire pan and gets in the corners. If using a basket-style air fryer, lightly grease a 7-inch or 8-inch cake pan that fits in your air fryer basket.<\/li>\n
        3. Stretch out the pizza dough to fit the shape of your pan. Transfer the dough to the pan pressing it to reach the edges of the pan. Dock the dough by piercing holes in the crust with a fork and brush the dough with olive oil.<\/li>\n
        4. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for 45 to 60 minutes. If your air fryer oven has a warming function, pre-heat the oven to 120\u00b0F. Turn the oven off and place the pan in the oven to proof for about 30 minutes.<\/li>\n
        5. Air-fry the pizza crust at 400\u00b0F OR in the air fryer basket for 10 minutes, until the crust is lightly browned.<\/li>\n
        6. Carefully remove the pan from the air fryer and flip the dough over in the pan. Brush the edges with olive oil and spread the pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a \u00bd-inch perimeter around the edge. Top with the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese and any desired toppings you like. Sprinkle a little dried oregano over top.<\/li>\n
        7. Return the pizza to the air fryer oven to the middle position, OR the air fryer basket, and air-fry at 375\u00b0F for 12 minutes until the crust is browned and the cheese has melted.<\/li>\n
        8. Let the pizza rest for 5 minutes. Using a spatula, transfer the pizza to a cutting board. Cut into squares or wedges and serve hot.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
