How to make air fryer flatbread pizza with step-by-step instructions

A complete printable recipe and the measurements in both US customary and metric are available in the recipe card below.

Preheat your air fryer to 390°F/200°C.

Lightly brush olive oil over the flatbread; it’s not essential but does help make the bread even crispier.

Spread pizza sauce (you could use marinara sauce also) on the flatbread leaving a ½ inch border.

Then add mozzarella slices or shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.

Place the flatbread pizza in the air fryer basket, and air fry until the crust is golden brown and the cheese has melted approximately 4 minutes.

Remove from the basket, and scatter fresh basil leaves and optional red pepper flakes.

Notes

Flatbread: If you’re out of flatbread, this recipe would also work with pita bread or naan bread (double up on flavor and use garlic naan bread).
Preheat: We pre-heat our air fryer, but if you have an oven-style basket-type air fryer, then you probably won’t need to.
Watch closely: Every air fryer model cooks differently; different brands and capacities can mean that your food will need a longer or shorter cooking time, so keep a close eye on them.
Storage: Store leftover pizza in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, and freeze for up to 3 months.
