Ingredients

4 English Muffins Cut apart
½ cup Pizza Sauce
1 ½ cup Mozzarella Cheese grated
Mini Pepperoni
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning

Instructions

Start by gathering all your ingredients. Split your English muffins in half and have your toppings ready to go. Spray the basket with cooking spray or place parchment paper in the air fryer to help prevent sticking.
Preheat your air fryer oven to 400 degrees F for about 5 minutes. Place the English muffin halves in the air fryer basket, cut side up, and toast them for 2-3 minutes. This step is crucial as it helps to prevent the muffins from becoming soggy once the toppings are added. 4 English Muffins
After toasting, carefully remove the English muffins from the air fryer. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of pizza sauce on each English muffin half. ½ cup Pizza Sauce
Next, sprinkle your desired amount of mozzarella cheese on top. 1 ½ cup Mozzarella Cheese
Add the mini pepperoni and any other toppings you're using, then finish with a sprinkle of Italian seasoning for that extra flavor. Mini Pepperoni, 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
Place the topped muffins back in the air fryer. Cook them for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the muffins are golden brown. The exact cooking time might vary depending on the type of air fryer model, so keep an eye on your pizzas to ensure they don't overcook.
Once cooked, carefully remove the mini pizzas from the air fryer. Let them cool for a minute or two, then slice them if desired.
Serve hot with extra pizza sauce for dipping if you like.
