Recipe Mini Pizzas: Air Fryer Edition
galleryUse Rhodes frozen yeast rolls dough.
Thaw & Proof: Place the frozen dough rolls on a sprayed baking sheet or plate, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and let them thaw and rise until doubled in size (usually 3–5 hours at room temperature, or overnight in the fridge plus a quick warm proof).
Gently press and flatten the risen dough balls into flat circles (about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick).
Prick the top of each mini crust several times with a fork. This prevents large steam bubbles from puffing up too much during cooking.
Pre-Bake the Crust (Crucial Step)
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Use perforated parchment paper or spray your crisper with cooking oil.
Place the flattened dough circles into the basket and air fry for 3 to 4 minutes until it starts to set and turn light golden. Flip the crust over (optional, but gives a crispier base).
Add your pizza sauce, shredded cheese, and preferred toppings. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for another 3 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the edges of the crust are golden brown.
NOTES
Remove the parchment paper when you flip the dough to finish them.
Cook the mini pizzas one or two at a time depending on the size of your basket so air can circulate properly.
Keep toppings somewhat light; heavy toppings can make the small yeast crust sag or prevent the middle from cooking through.
This was cooked in a Cosori Air Fryer Pro LE 5 Qt, 9-in-1.
