Cooking Totino’s Pizza in an air fryer is a quick and convenient method that results in a crispy crust. Here’s how to do it:

Preheat Your Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Preheating helps ensure even cooking.

Prepare the Pizza: Take your Totino’s Pizza out of the packaging and remove any plastic wrap. Place the pizza in the air fryer basket. If the pizza is too large for the basket, you may need to cut it into smaller pieces to fit.

Cook the Pizza: Cook the pizza in the preheated air fryer for about 10-12 minutes. Keep an eye on it to prevent overcooking. The exact cooking time can vary depending on your air fryer’s model and the size of the pizza.

Check for Doneness: Open the air fryer basket and check if the crust is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Use tongs or a spatula to carefully lift the pizza and check the underside for doneness as well.

Serve: Once the pizza is cooked to your liking, carefully remove it from the air fryer using tongs or a spatula. Allow it to cool for a minute before slicing and serving.

Optional: Spruce it Up: If you like, you can add extra toppings or seasonings before or after cooking the pizza in the air fryer. Common additions include red pepper flakes, dried oregano, or a drizzle of olive oil for added flavor.

Notes

All air fryers cook at different speeds.  These recipes are meant to be a general guide.  Cooking times depend on various factors including thickness, cut, and type of meat used.  I use an Instant Pot Vortex Plus shelf air fryer.  If you’re using something different, especially a bucket-type air fryer, I advise keeping an eye on food so it doesn’t under or overcook.
