Directions
- 1
Preheat your air fryer to 325°F (160°C) for 3 minutes.
- 2
Lightly moisten the edges of each dough sheet with water using a pastry brush — this acts as a natural glue to seal in the filling.
- 3
Place 4 mozzarella sticks along the edges of each sheet, fold the dough over and press firmly to seal, shaping each into a square with a cheese-stuffed crust.
- 4
Spread 1 tablespoon of tomato sauce evenly over the center of each pizza base.
- 5
Top with shredded mozzarella, diced tomato, and a generous sprinkle of dried oregano.
- 6
Air fry at 325°F (160°C) for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden and crispy.
💡 Chef's Tip
Customize with your favorite toppings — pepperoni, olives, roasted peppers, or mushrooms all work beautifully. Finish with fresh basil leaves right after cooking for a bright, aromatic touch.
