Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza uses two 8-inch flour tortillas as ultra-thin personal crusts. Olive oil and a Parmesan–Italian seasoning blend flavor the base, while pizza sauce, mozzarella, and pepperoni create a familiar topping that crisps in minutes.

The recipe makes exactly 2 personal pizzas and serves 2. Preparation takes 5 minutes, cooking takes 5 minutes, and the listed total is 10 minutes. Each pizza cooks separately at 400°F and rests in the basket for 2–3 minutes.

Quick and crispy personal pizzas made in the air fryer! Ready in 5 minutes with your favorite toppings on tortilla crust.

Ingredients You'll Need

  • Pizza Base

  • Seasoning Blend

  • Toppings

How to Make It

1.

1. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. This ensures even cooking and a crispy crust from the start.

2.

2. Make Pizza Seasoning: In a small bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. This will be your flavor base for both the crust and topping.

3.

3. Prepare Tortilla Base: Brush both tortillas with olive oil or spray with cooking spray on one side. Sprinkle half of the Parmesan-Italian seasoning mixture over the oiled side of each tortilla, reserving the rest for topping.

4.

4. Add Sauce and Toppings: Spread pizza sauce evenly on each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges. Top with pepperoni slices and shredded mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle the remaining seasoning mixture over the cheese.

5.

5. Cook First Pizza: Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Carefully place one tortilla pizza in the air fryer basket and cook for 4-5 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

6.

6. Let Pizza Crisp: Once done, remove the air fryer basket from the unit but leave the pizza in the basket for 2-3 minutes. This allows the bottom to crisp up even more from the residual heat.

7.

7. Remove and Repeat: Using a spatula, carefully remove the first pizza from the basket. Cook the second pizza following the same process.

8.

8. Slice and Serve: Cut each pizza into triangles using a pizza cutter or sharp knife. Serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Extra Information

  1. Almond flour or regular flour tortillas work best for crispiness
  2. You can use any sauce - pesto, alfredo, or BBQ sauce all work great
  3. Don't overload with toppings or the tortilla won't get crispy
  4. Let pizza rest in the basket after cooking for extra crispiness
