Perfect for a quick snack or fun meal, these mini pizzas come together in minutes with flaky biscuits and classic pizza toppings!
Ingredients
- 1 (16 oz) can jumbo flaky biscuits (such as Pillsbury Grands)
- 1 cup pizza or marinara sauce
- 1-2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup pepperoni, cut into fourths or use mini pepperoni
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Air Fryer:
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Lightly spray or brush the bottom of the air fryer basket with olive oil, or line it with air fryer parchment paper. - Shape the Biscuits:
Separate each biscuit into two layers, then flatten them into 4-inch circles using your hands or a rolling pin. - Add Sauce and Toppings:
Place each flattened biscuit round on a flat surface. Spread about 2 teaspoons of pizza sauce on each, then sprinkle with 2 teaspoons of shredded mozzarella. Add pepperoni or any other desired toppings. - Cook in the Air Fryer:
Place the mini pizzas in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Additional Tips
- Customize Toppings: Try adding mushrooms, olives, bell peppers, or sausage for variety.
- Storage: Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat in the air fryer for a few minutes to keep them crisp.
