Whether you’re preparing a quick lunch or a fun dinner for family and friends, this recipe will guide you through crafting an authentic Margherita Pizza that everyone will love.
Ingredients for 4-6 servings:
- 2 pre-made pizza doughs (or homemade if preferred)
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 2 cups fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
- 3 medium tomatoes, sliced
- Fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Cooking Instructions:
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Begin by preheating your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) to guarantee even cooking of the pizza.
- Prepare the Dough: Roll out each pizza dough into a circular shape that fits the size of your air fryer basket. Make sure the dough isn’t too thick to guarantee even cooking.
- Assemble the Pizza: Place the rolled-out dough on a lightly greased parchment paper or air fryer-safe pizza pan. Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly on each dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
- Add Toppings: Layer the sliced mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, followed by the tomato slices. Sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano over the toppings to enhance the flavors.
- Air Fry the Pizza: Carefully place the assembled pizza into the preheated air fryer basket. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

Extra Tips:
When rolling out the pizza dough, make sure it’s not too thick as a thicker dough may not cook thoroughly in the air fryer. If you’re using store-bought dough, let it rest at room temperature for about 20 minutes before rolling it out to make it more pliable.
For an extra crispy crust, brush the edges with a bit of olive oil before cooking. If your air fryer has a smaller basket, you might need to cook the pizzas one at a time.
Finally, always check your pizza a couple of minutes before the suggested cooking time, as air fryers can vary in performance.

- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking Instructions:
- Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Confirm it fits into your air fryer basket or tray. You might need to divide the dough into smaller sections if your air fryer is small.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for about 3 minutes.
- Assemble the Pizza: Brush the rolled-out dough lightly with olive oil. Spread the pesto sauce evenly over the base, leaving about a half-inch border around the edges.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the pesto. Evenly distribute the sun-dried tomato slices on top. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Cook the Pizza: Carefully place the pizza in the preheated air fryer. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
- Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove the pizza from the air fryer and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Slice and serve immediately.
Extra Tips:
- If your air fryer is on the smaller side, consider making individual mini pizzas instead of one large pizza to guarantee even cooking.
- For an extra crispy crust, you can partially cook the rolled-out dough for 3-4 minutes in the air fryer before adding the toppings.
- Feel free to customize your pizza with additional toppings such as olives, artichoke hearts, or roasted red peppers for more flavor and texture variations.
- Always check the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific air fryer model to avoid overcooking or undercooking your pizza.

Extra Tips:
When preparing your pizza, make sure the dough isn’t too thick, as a thinner crust will cook more evenly in the air fryer. If you prefer a crispier crust, consider par-baking the dough for 3-4 minutes before adding the toppings.
When placing the toppings, avoid overloading the pizza, as this can prevent the crust from cooking properly. Feel free to customize your meat selections according to your preferences or substitute with any other favorite toppings.
Finally, remember to monitor your pizza closely during cooking, as air fryers can vary in cooking times and temperatures.
