Ingredients

  • 1 pitta bread
  • 2 Tbsp pizza sauce
  • 50 g (~ 1/2 cup) grated mozzarella cheese
  • Your choice of pizza toppings (I used black olives, mushrooms and sliced red onion)

Instructions

  • First, you need to puff up the pitta bread. You can cook it for a couple of minutes in your toaster if it’s easier - otherwise, put it in the air fryer at 180°C (350°F) for 2-3 minutes each side. It doesn’t need to be crispy at this stage, but just warmed enough to open up in the middle. Place the pitta on a board or a plate, and cut it open.
  • Spread half of the pizza sauce (around a Tablespoon) inside the pitta bread, and sprinkle over a thin layer of grated cheese.
  • Close the pitta bread, and repeat, adding the remaining sauce and cheese. Top with your favourite pizza toppings.
  • Place in the air fryer, and cook at 180°C (350°F) for around 5-8 minutes, until crisped up to your liking.
