Toppings may fly off the pizzas, depending on how light they are and how strong your air fryer fan is. Use an air fryer rack to keep the toppings from flying off while air frying the pizzas (see photo in recipe steps).

Ingredients
1bagel, split in half
1/2cup(120ml)pizza sauce or tomato sauce
1/3cup(40g)shredded cheese
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
Optional Toppings
Pepperoni, cooked Sausage, Bacon pieces, diced Ham, sliced or diced Tomatoes, Mushrooms, Pineapple, etc.
Other Sauce Options
BBQ Sauce, Salsa, White (Alfredo) Sauce, Pesto, etc.
Cut the bagels in half and place each half in the air fryer, cut side down (if air frying multiple bagels, only cook in a single layer - cook in batches if needed). Air Fry at 360°F/182°C for 2 minutes.
Flip the bagels halves to cut side up. Continue to Air Fry at 360°F/182°C for another 1-2 minutes (if you want the crusts extra crispy - air fry each side an additional minute or two more).
Add sauce, toppings, and cheese on top of the bagel halves. 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 2-4 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 bagel pizzas are crispy and cheese is melted.
