How to Make Mini Pizzas in the Air Fryer
- Open the package of biscuits and separate each biscuit into two layers.
- Roll each piece of biscuit out into a 4-inch circle of dough.
- Top each piece of dough with about 2 teaspoons of marinara sauce.
- Add pepperoni to the sauce and put freshly shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the pizzas.
- Spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray, olive oil spray, or line with parchment paper.
- Carefully place 2-4 of the mini pizzas into the air fryer basket, leaving an inch or more of space between each pizza.
- Air fry the mini pizzas at 400° Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celcius) for 4 minutes, or until the pizzas have a golden brown crispy crust. Add additional cooking time if needed.
- Carefully remove the air fried biscuit pizzas from the air fryer basket and allow them to cool slightly on a cooling rack.

- Serve immediately.
NOTE: This recipe was made with a 1700 watt basket style Cosori 5.8 air fryer. All air fryers cook a little differently. You may need to adjust the cooking time according to your brand of air fryer. The size and power output of your air fryer may be different, and you should check on your dish frequently the first time you make it to see if it is cooking faster or slower and if you need to add or take away cook time.
Tips for Best Results:
- Make sure to cut each biscuit in half and roll the dough with a rolling pin. If you try to make this with a whole biscuit, they will not cook correctly.
- Use freshly shredded mozzarella cheese versus prepackaged shredded cheese if possible. Fresh mozzarella cheese will melt better and have fewer oils and grease than prepackaged shredded cheese.
- Garnish the pizzas with all of your favorite pizza toppings and serve sprinkled with fresh parmesan cheese and fresh chopped basil.
