Make You Own Pizza Bar

For a fun party, pizza night, kids sleepover, or birthday celebration, make a mini pizza bar! Prep the pizza crusts and place at the beginning of the bar, then line up toppings with the sauce first, then all of the various topping options, and finally the cheese. Place the pizzas into the air fryer and cook a few at a time.

How to Store Leftovers

Keep the leftover pizzas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. We used a zip-top bag and it worked really well. Reheat the pizzas in the microwave or air fryer in 30-second heating intervals until warm.

Can i use Homemade Pizza Dough?

Absolutely! Homemade pizza dough is easy to make and our recipe tastes fantastic. Use biscuit dough when you need a quick dinner/snack and homemade dough for when you have the extra time.

How to make Frozen Pizza in the Air Fryer

Yes! You can make a frozen pizza in the air fryer. You’ll want to check the times and temperatures suggested on your pizza packaging and reduce the temperature and time suggested. For example, if the box suggests cooking at 450F for 10-12 minutes in a conventional oven, then you’ll want to cook it at 380F for 8-10 minutes in my air fryer.

    I am a private chef/caterer and my 2.5 year oven broke just over 2 weeks ago. So I challenged myself to go no oven until my birthday in February and use only my air fryer, crockpot, IP, and electric skillet. I have a PowerXL so it is a bit different and cannot hold a full pizza. My kids LOVE pizza and tonight I am hosting my son’s best friend and my daughter’s boyfriend so I am going to make these! Thanks for the inspo!

      I don’t either and wanted to know the same thing. Don’t see it any where. Am thinking of doing it and just putting them in the oven for maybe 10 minutes. I think it should work.

  2. I (at age 53) got braces a few months ago) and struggle with thick, tough pizza crusts. This looks like just the ticket. (And I love that you put broccoli on the one picture. My favorite pizza of all time is broccoli and cauliflower and tomato…and no, I’m not vegetarian. I just have good taste. The roasted veggies become so good when they brown in the oven.)

    My husband loved these!!! Have to admit, they are pretty darn good. The hardest part of this is getting it off the wax paper after I rolled it. Will make again!

    I tried these, and they are so GOOD! I love adding whatever veggies I want, and my kids don’t fight with me over the toppings. It’s a nice change to using English muffins. Thanks for the idea!

  5. 5 stars
    This is a great idea, I opted for real mozzarella and it was really good! The first batch was a little doughy so I cooked them for 6 mins and they were spot on. Great recipe!

  6. Another bread that makes great mini pizzas are English Muffins. Used to make them when I needed a quick lunch or snack for the children. 

    1. I bake according to the instructions on the container when using a conventional oven.
