🍕🔥🍞 Texas Toast Air Fryer Pizza – 10-Minute Crispy Cheesy Bliss! 🍞🔥🍕
Ingredients:
8 slices garlic Texas toast
½ cup pizza sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
24 slices pepperoni (about 3 per slice of toast)
Optional toppings: sliced olives, diced bell peppers, mushrooms, or fresh basil
Cooking spray or a little olive oil
Instructions:
Preheat the air fryer:
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it warm up for a few minutes.
Prepare the Texas toast:
Spread about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce evenly over each slice of garlic Texas toast.
Add cheese and toppings:
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce. Top with pepperoni slices and any other optional toppings you like.
Air fry:
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray or brush with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place the prepared Texas toast slices in the basket in a single layer. You may need to do this in batches depending on your air fryer size.
Cook for 7–10 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and starting to brown, and the edges of the toast are crispy.
Serve:
Carefully remove the pizzas and let cool for a minute or two (the cheese will be very hot!). Serve with extra pizza sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
Tips:
Don’t overcrowd the basket to ensure even cooking and crispy results.
Swap pepperoni for cooked sausage, ham, or veggies for variety.
Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or Italian seasoning for an extra flavor kick.
