Tips on Making Air Fried Toast Pizza
- Use any type of sliced bread that you like. White or wheat bread works great.
- If you have a regular loaf bread or sourdough loaf, cut off a slice and you’re ready to go.
- Soft rolls work great too. If you want extra garlic butter flavor, buy the pre-baked garlic bread. Then add all the sauce and toppings you want.
- We like to air fry the bread first to make it like a crispy toast. That way, the toast pizza is guaranteed to be crispy.
- After air frying the bread on both sides, we add the sauce and toppings.
- All air fried toast pizza recipe details are in the recipe box below.
- Pro Tip: Use an air fryer rack that fits your air fryer to keep the toppings from flying around. The hot circulating air can blow your cheese and toppings off the pizza. These racks are great to hold the toppings down as they finish cooking

Instructions
- Place the bread slices in the air fryer basket/tray (only cook in a single layer – cook in batches if needed). Air Fry at 360°F/182°C for 2-3 minutes or until slightly toasted.
- Add sauce, toppings, and cheese on top of the toasts. Lightly spray with oil for extra crispy.
- Cover toppings with an air fryer rack to keep toppings from flying around.
- Air Fry 360°F/182°C for 2-5 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted. Try air frying for about 2 minutes first. If you want the top to be crispier, add additional minute or two until the toast pizzas are crispy and cheese is melted.
- Allow to cool for about 2 minutes. Serve warm.
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).
