Notes
Storing and Reheating
Store leftover pizza in an airtight container or wrap it in aluminum foil or plastic wrap before storing it in the refrigerator. It’ll be good for up to four days. You can also freeze it for up to two months. You can reheat the pizza in an air fryer. Arrange it in a single layer in the basket, then heat for up to 4 minutes.Expert Tips
- Pre-cooking the crust before adding the toppings is necessary so you won’t get an undercooked, soggy one.
- Refrain from adding too many toppings or sauce, as your pizza might not get cooked evenly.
- Incorporating oregano, fresh basil, nutritional yeast, or garlic powder into the dough can enhance the crust's taste.
- Since air fryers may vary in performance, monitor the cooking time to prevent overcooking your pizza.
- Use a thinner dough if you want a crispier pizza crust.
