These mini hand-held calzones are perfect as appetizers or snacks. I chose to use pepperoni but they would be great with sausage or just plain with cheese.

Time 35m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (13.8 ounce) package refrigerated pizza dough (such as Pillsbury®)
9 teaspoons pizza sauce
1 (1.75 ounce) package pepperoni (such as Hormel®)
4 ½ tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Roll out pizza dough on a lightly floured surface. Cut out 9 circles using a 2 1/8-inch biscuit cutter. Roll each circle into a 4 1/2-inch disc. Fill each disc with 1 teaspoon pizza sauce, 3 slices pepperoni, and 1/2 tablespoon mozzarella cheese. Fold over, secure edges by folding, and crimp with the tines of a fork.
  • Preheat an air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper and spray with avocado oil. Place a batch of calzones into the basket and mist them with avocado oil.
  • Air fry for 6 to 8 minutes. Turn calzones over, mist with avocado oil, and air fry until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. Repeat with remaining calzones.

Tips:

  • Choose the right air fryer: Not all air fryers are created equal. For the best results, choose a model that is large enough to accommodate your pizza and has a temperature range of at least 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use the right dough: There are many different types of pizza dough available, but not all of them are suitable for air frying. For best results, use a dough that is specifically designed for air frying, or a thin, crispy dough like flatbread or pita.
  • Preheat your air fryer: Just like when baking pizza in a traditional oven, preheating your air fryer is essential for getting a crispy crust. Preheat your air fryer to the desired temperature for at least 5 minutes before adding the pizza.
  • Don't overcrowd the air fryer: If your air fryer is too crowded, the pizza will not cook evenly. Make sure there is at least 1 inch of space between the pizza and the sides of the air fryer.
  • Cook the pizza in batches: If you are making a large pizza, you may need to cook it in batches. Cook the pizza for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Top the pizza after it is cooked: To prevent the toppings from getting soggy, add them to the pizza after it is cooked. This will also help to prevent the cheese from overcooking.

Conclusion:

Air fryer pizza is a quick and easy way to enjoy your favorite pizza at home. With just a few simple ingredients and a few minutes of cooking time, you can have a delicious, crispy pizza that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're craving pizza, give air fryer pizza a try. You won't be disappointed!
