🍽️ How to Make Texas Toast Pizza in the Air Fryer
1️⃣ Preheat the Air Fryer
Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3 minutes. This helps the toast crisp evenly.
2️⃣ Prep the Texas Toast
Place frozen Texas toast slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer (work in batches if needed).
Air fry for 3 minutes to lightly toast the bread before adding toppings—this prevents soggy pizza.
3️⃣ Add Sauce & Cheese
Remove toast and spread about 1 tablespoon pizza sauce on each slice.
Top generously with shredded mozzarella and your favorite toppings.
4️⃣ Air Fry to Melty Perfection
Return pizzas to the air fryer and cook for 4–6 minutes, until:
-
Cheese is melted and bubbly
-
Edges are golden and crispy
Keep an eye on them—air fryers vary!
5️⃣ Serve Hot
Carefully remove, slice if desired, and enjoy immediately while cheesy and crisp 🍕
