This air fryer method turns a basic frozen pizza into something that tastes fresh off a pizzeria stone, with a crisp, golden crust and bubbling, fully melted cheese in under ten minutes. The hot circulating air gets the underside genuinely crackly-crisp while the top stays gooey, no soggy middle in sight. A quick scatter of red pepper flakes at the end adds a little heat if you want it, but the pizza is just as good bare. It's a low-effort, high-reward dinner that comes together with basically zero cleanup — just a basket and a spatula. Great for a solo night in or a quick fix for picky eaters, and it's an easy one to keep on rotation for a vegetarian kitchen.

Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 3 minutes.
Lightly coat the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Remove the frozen pizza from its packaging and place it directly in the basket — if the pizza is larger than the basket, trim or fold the edges slightly so it lies flat.
