  • 6 pieces English muffins split in half

  • 4 ounces mini pepperoni

  • Measuring Cups

Method
 

Instructions:
  1. Step 1: Prepare the English Muffins - Start by splitting the English muffins in half. You can use a knife or simply pull them apart with your hands. Place the halves cut side up on a clean surface.
  2. Step 2: Add the Pizza Sauce - Spoon about 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce onto each English muffin half, spreading it evenly. This is where you can let your creativity shine—add more sauce if you like a saucier pizza!
  3. Step 3: Sprinkle on the Cheese - Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce on each muffin half. The more cheese, the merrier, right? You can also mix in other cheeses for extra flavor.
  4. Step 4: Top with Pepperoni - Evenly distribute the mini pepperoni over the cheese. If you prefer, you can cut them into quarters for a more spread-out topping.
  5. Step 5: Preheat the Air Fryer - Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes. This step ensures that your pizzas cook evenly and get that perfect crunchy texture.
  6. Step 6: Air Fry the Pizzas - Carefully place the prepared English muffin pizzas in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd them—work in batches if necessary. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
  7. Step 7: Serve and Enjoy! - Once cooked, use a spatula to carefully remove the pizzas from the air fryer. Allow them to cool for a minute, then serve hot and enjoy your delicious Air Fryer English Muffin Pizzas!

Notes

  • Don’t overfill the muffins with sauce or toppings to avoid sogginess.
  • Ensure the air fryer is fully preheated for a crispy finish.
  • Keep an eye on them while cooking; air fryers can vary in temperature.
  • Allow the pizzas to cool slightly before eating to avoid burns.
