Breakdown of the Ingredients

  • Refrigerated biscuit doughs – The base of these easy air fryer pizzas, providing a soft yet crispy crust.
  • Mozzarella cheese (1.5 cups, shredded) – The best part of any pizza, making each bite gooey and delicious.
  • Turkey pepperoni (1/4 cup) – A leaner option for classic pizza flavor, but you can use mini pepperoni or any favorite pizza toppings.
  • Pizza sauce (1/4 cup) – You can use marinara sauce or your own pizza sauce for a different twist.
  • Butter (1/4 cup, melted) – Helps create a deliciously buttery, golden brown crust.
  • Pizza seasoning (1 tbsp from Trader Joe’s) or 1 tsp oregano + 1 tsp paprika – Adds classic Italian seasoning flavor.
  • Cooking spray – To prevent sticking in the air fryer basket.

How to Make Individual Air Fryer Biscuit Pizzas

  1. Prepare the butter mixture: Melt butter and mix it with pizza seasoning (or oregano and paprika). Set aside.
  2. Prepare the biscuits: Take the refrigerated biscuit doughs and cut them open. If they seem too thick, you can gently flatten them with a rolling pin.
  3. Assemble the pizzas: Spread a tablespoon of sauce on each side of the open biscuit layer. Add mozzarella cheese and two slices of mini pepperoni (or your own toppings).
  4. Seal the biscuits: Close the biscuit and pinch the edges of the biscuit to seal it shut, ensuring no cheese leaks out. Repeat with the remaining biscuits.
  5. Brush with butter mixture: Lightly coat the top of the biscuit with the melted butter mixture to enhance flavor and help achieve a golden brown crust.
  6. Air fry: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray and place biscuits inside, ensuring there’s space between them. Cook at 350 degrees F for 4-5 minutes, or until the biscuits are crispy and golden brown.

How to Store the Recipe

If you have leftover pizza, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a day or in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply pop them back in the air fryer oven at 350 degrees F for a couple of minutes to crisp them up again. Avoid microwaving, as it can make the biscuits soggy.

Tips for Making the Recipe

  • Adjust cooking time based on your air fryer: Depending on the size of your air fryer basket, you may need to cook in batches. Keep an eye on the personal pizzas to prevent overcooking.
  • Try different fillings: Swap out turkey pepperoni for sausage crumbles, mushrooms, or green pepper for a different flavor profile.
  • Use olive oil instead of butter: If you want a slightly lighter option, you can brush the top of the biscuit with olive oil instead of melted butter.
  • Don’t overfill the biscuits: Too much filling can make it hard to seal the edges of the biscuit, leading to cheese leakage.
  • Let the biscuits cool slightly: Allowing the biscuits to sit for a minute or two after cooking helps the filling set and prevents burns.

These easy air fryer pizzas are a great way to make a quick, delicious meal without all the hassle of traditional pizza-making. Whether you’re looking for a fun family dinner, a quick after-school snack, or a simple next pizza night idea, these scrumptious air fryer biscuit pizzas will become a family favorite in no time!
