- oil spray , (optional to lightly coat the pizza)
Equipment
Instructions
- Remove frozen French bread pizzas from plastic.
- Place in the air fryer basket in a single layer (don't have them overlapping – cook in batches if your air fryer isn't big enough).
- Lightly spray the top of pizza so that the toppings don't burn and cook more evenly.
- Air Fry at 380°F/195°C for about 8-12 minutes or until cooked to your desired crispness. If cooking for the first time, start cooking for about 8 minutes first, then check to see if it's to your liking. If needed, add time in 1-2 minute increments until it reaches your preferred crispiness. Let cool for a couple minutes so the cheese isn't super hot & enjoy!
Notes
- Cook Frozen – Do not thaw first.
- Recipe timing is based on a non-preheated air fryer. If cooking in multiple pizzas back to back, the following pizzas may cook a little quicker.
- Recipes were tested in 3.7 to 6 qt. air fryers. If using a larger air fryer, the pizza might cook quicker so adjust cooking time.
If your air fryer is preheated or if you are cooking multiple batches, you may need to reduce timing by a few minutes (unless preheating is called for in the recipe).

Why did the pizza burn in the air fryer?
It’s probably because your air fryer cooks really hot. Ninja air fryers also tend to cook much hotter than other brands. We have a starting temperature and timing. Check your frozen french bread pizza a little earlier. If it looks like it’s cooked and crispy, then you’re good. If you feel you can use another minute or two, then cook it for longer. It’s all trial and error for your first pizza because air fryers all cook so differently and pizza brands can vary in the thickness of the french bread.
